We hope you and your family and friends are safe after the storm this week, and our thoughts are with those that are still recovering from the devastating storm.
The Halloween Carnival has been rescheduled for tomorrow, Friday November 2. If you can make the new date and have not already signed up, email Dustin at dcyp.events@gmail.com. The kids are so excited that the carnival was not cancelled, and I know we're all excited for it as well!
Details on two upcoming service projects are also below along with the date and location of our November happy hour.
Have a great weekend!
