LENT WORSHIP SERIES

HOLY 40
February 18 - April 3, 2026

Sometimes all we need to jumpstart transformation is a challenge! In the season of Lent, we are called to transform our hearts through discipline and reflection. But, how do we do that? Where do we start? This Lent, join DUMC for a 40-day challenge of study and prayer. Together we’ll journey through the gospel of Matthew and worship through the psalms - learning how God is calling us to lives filled with holiness and connection.

Great Day of Service

Great Day of Service

March 14, 2026
9:00 a.m. - 1:30 p.m.
The annual Great Day of Service is a local mission opportunity with projects for all ages and abilities. We organize hundreds of volunteers in 18 different mission projects. Most of the projects are at DUMC, such as assembling blessing kits for local charities or the family-friendly Potato Drop, which supplies food to local food pantries. While most of the projects are on campus, some projects are out in the community. This will be DUMC’s 34th Annual Great Day of Service event!
