Weekly offerings

For nourishing body, Mind & soul

  • Centering prayer

    Are you looking for a small group at DCC?

    We offer two weekly Centering Prayer groups. The groups, usually 6-10 people, enjoy two readings from a variety of faith and wisdom traditions, two periods of silent reflection/meditation, followed by a time to share (or not) responses to the readings. Centering Prayer slows us down, nourishes our spirits, and makes it easy to connect with others in sometimes surprising ways. You're invited!

    Tuesdays, 9-10 a.m., Fireside Room
    Drop in as your schedule allows.


    Wednesdays, 8-9 a.m., online via Zoom
    To join the Zoom group, contact the office at (530)753-2894.
