Orientation for Standing Rock Mission Trip @ Dover & Zoom

Tickets

Jan 30 @ 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

Thank you for your interest in a potential mission trip to the Standing Rock Reservation as part of our Dover mission partnership with Tipi Wakan ministries in Cannon Ball, ND.

We have scheduled a required orientation for January 30 from 10am – Noon. This will be a hybrid meeting, allowing some to join us in-person and others online. Orientation and at least one additional training is required for our volunteers. We have built relationships of love and trust with our Native American friends in the last 13 years and we believe our preparation both culturally and spiritually has made the difference.

Introducing the Dover A/V Support Group

It has been almost a year now since COVID forced all churches to implement more technology in an incredibly short period of time. Some are now masters at Zoom and other platforms—whether we wanted to be or not!

A new support group just for A/V and tech people has launched! This is an informal network primarily for volunteers working all this out mostly behind the scenes.

You are invited to a Zoom meeting.
When: Feb 2, 2021 06:30 PM
