Bikers for Christ Motorcycle Ministry Bike Blessing 2016
On April 30 at 11:30am, Bikers for Christ will do a short run from the south lot of the Blue Hen Corporate Center (655 S. Bay Rd., Dover, DE 19901) to Tre Sorelle Dolce Ice Cream and Italian Ice (11 S. Railroad Ave., Wyoming, Delaware). At Tres Sorelle Dolce they will have a time for prayer and “blessing of the bikes”. All are welcome and encouraged to ride–whether riding with a different club, unaffiliated, a follower of Jesus or just wanting to ride!
If you’re interested, contact Cowboy (302-222-4656) or grab a flyer at Deep Water on Sunday.
FireFly 2016, Code Purple & Deep Water Church
Some of you know we collected camping supplies for the homeless last year after Firefly. John Rundle had the idea; and we got permission and just showed up and did what we could.
The scope of what we could have done was unbelievable, so we connected with Red Frog, the company that runs Firefly. We pitched the idea to partner with them to collect leftover camping supplies for the homeless of Kent County during the festival. They were excited about the idea. We partner with Code Purple regularly to serve those in need around Dover and the rest of Kent County, so all the items will go to them. To read more about it, check out FireFly’s website.
As we approach the spring, we are looking for volunteers to help with the project. To sign up, go here. There is a private Facebook event for this event. Please message me (Jeff) or John Rundle to get invited–and then invite your friends! We’ll keep you in the loop to help!
Also, if your business might be interested in donating services or sending volunteers, let us know! We have local businesses donating trucks, laundering donated goods (need more help here!), etc.
In it to End it – Get Involved
Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”
–Jesus in Matthew 28:18-20
Jesus commissioned his followers to go and make disciples around the world. We get to be part of what God is doing–around Dover and around the world!
Even if you missed our Night of Prayer (In it to End it), you can connect with us as we work with Sower of Seeds to impact the world for Jesus. Check out the information table on Sunday or connect with Christina.
Easter Egg Hunt
The City of Dover’s Egg Hunt will be held at Schutte Park this Saturday (March 19) on the softball fields located at 10 Electric Ave, Dover (Off Hazlettville Rd/North Street near Kraft Foods).
PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT Easter Weekend. The City of Dover does their egg hunt two Saturdays before Easter Sunday! If you show up the Saturday before Easter, the crowds will be much smaller and your chances of finding eggs will be greatly reduced!
The hunt is open to all children 10 and under (age groups include: 3 & under, 4 & 5, 6 to 8, and 9 & 10). All age group hunts will begin promptly at 12:00 noon. And since it only takes a few minutes for all the eggs to disappear, so it’s best to get there early!
Bring your baskets! This event is free (sponsored by the city of Dover), no registration required and will go on whether it’s rain or shine!
Rain or Shine! After all, what else can they do with all of those plastic eggs?
Mark Your Calendar–Sunrise on Easter 2016
OK, seriously…you probably don’t need to mark your calendar. Who makes appointments this early in the morning on a Sunday? But seriously, as the sun rises at 6:53 AM some from Deep Water will gather for a sunrise gathering at Port Mahon near the pier. It’s a ‘bring your own chair’ and ‘bring your own coffee’ event.
Come join us as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in this incredible setting with a brief service of Scripture and prayer as we enjoy the beauty of God’s creation.
Need directions? Click here. And look for the pier. Contact Jeff for more info.
