Feeding the Homeless on Tuesday Mornings
With the opening of the Day Center for the Dover Interfaith Homeless Shelter, there is now a place for homeless persons to go during the day. Since there are currently no feeding services open on Tuesdays, Deep Water has the opportunity to bring hot food for lunch to the Day Center.
To prepare, volunteers will need to heat food at 9:30am at Deep Water and we will transport it to the Day Center on Loockerman St. If you are interested in helping, and your schedule will allow it, please contact us or comment below.

We live in a world where men often strive to be #1–in sports, the workplace, in our hobbies and in everything we do. But there are times where being second is the best choice you can make. Meet us this Saturday (January 10) at Deep Water’s worship space. We’ll make coffee then watch a short video and talk about faith and how it affects the way we live our lives. If you want breakfast, feel free to grab something before your come–it’s BYOB…Bring Your Own Breakfast!

Socks & Long Underwear
With the cold weather this time of year, being outside can be uncomfortable and living outside becomes extremely difficult. To help the homeless, we provide coats and sweatshirts that the people of Deep Water donate. Long underwear and warm socks are some of the most requested items. We need more socks and long underwear to help them.
If you have any used one in decent shape or would like to donate new ones (or money we’ll use to buy them), please drop them off on any Sunday. And if you forget on Sundays, contact us and we’ll arrange for another time for you to drop them off.
