Sermon By Nick Perez

A Mother Who Gave Her Son to God
1 Samuel 1:11 ESV

And she vowed a vow and said, “O Lord of hosts, if you will indeed look on the affliction of your servant and remember me and not forget your servant, but will give
to your servant a son, then I will give him to the Lord all the days of his life, and no razor shall touch his head.”

Donate to Showers of Love

Showers of LoveEvery Thursday, we provide 30-50 showers for our homeless neighbors. Along with showers, each guest receives a meal and under- wear, socks, pants, and a shirt. With recent thrift store pricing of jeans on the rise, we have found it more cost-effective to shop at Amazon and Walmart for new items (Rustler brand on Amazon and George brand at Walmart). Here is an easy way to shop and donate to this ministry. Search for the “DPCOC Showers of Love” Wish List on Amazon or type the link below into your web browser. It contains the items we buy most frequently in the sizes we use regularly.
