Welcome to all who are worshiping with us at the Dewey Community church this morning. May we all be grateful to God for the reminder that, for his children, worship is essential and not non-essential.

This Sunday's sermon will be available soon at www.deweychurch.org/listen.

If you are not already receiving DCC emails but would like to be, contact the church office at office@deweychurch.org.

Telling the Truth to Disciples
John 10:1-10

Jesus came to tell his disciples the truth about the benefits of following him. In this text we are reminded of three of these.

I. As disciples of Jesus we are Known By Him.

II. As disciples of Jesus we are Led By Him

III. As disciples of Jesus we are Saved Through Him.

Conclusion: I have come that you might have life and have it abundantly!

SAT, MAR 27 // Easter Eggstravaganza
The Fisher-Area Ministerial Association is hosting an Easter Eggstravaganza on Saturday, March 27 in the afternoon. This year’s activities will be different from past years in that it will take place around the pond in Heritage subdivision. Twelve stations will surround the pond and families will move from station to station hearing a portion of the Easter Story at each stop. Stay tuned for more details.

The Board of This Little Light of Mine Preschool has worked the past two years to write by-laws for the preschool and to revise the existing policy manual. A vote will be taken by the church membership at the March 28 business meeting to adopt these two documents. Hard copies of both documents are available on the table in the entryway. In addition, an email will be sent out this week with links to digital copies of both documents. Please take some time to review these documents prior to the business meeting.

Online Church Directory: With the arrival of the C. Family, an effort is being made to make the DCC online directory more complete. If you are not currently listed in the directory, please fill out the form (Online Church Directory Information) located on the table in the entryway. If you have not yet added a picture to the directory, you can do so by following the directions on the Instant Church Directory app. Access to the directory is limited to those included in the directory. This will be a great tool for Andrew and Paige to use as they get acquainted with their new church family.
