Find a Team
You may be visiting this page to explore the different teams and find out where you might like to serve and contribute in our mission of growing followers of Jesus. All of our teams have this overarching mission. Each team operates as a group within itself, responsible for the area it's looking after.
Whilst the aim of serve teams are different from growth groups, we find that people tend to enjoy getting to know each other and have an opportunity to support one another. So that the teams keep on track, each team will meet on a regular basis, for example quarterly. Team leaders and members have opportunities throughout the year to be trained to further develop their current skills and capacity. On this page you will find a list of different teams that currently operate within DPC. Have a look how you may serve within our church or to be praying specifically for teams.
