Bluegrass Sunday at TDC!

Break out your flannel and get ready for a Sunday with a little different sound! Toes will be a-tapping as we switch things up with some bluegrass music and celebrate all that God is doing at The Downtown Church.

This tradition is a chance to look back and celebrate the ways God has been at work in the past year, while looking ahead with excitement for all that’s still to come.

During our final song, we’ll bring our Pledge Cards forward as a way to participate in what God is doing through TDC as we work together to make more of heaven right here on earth. These pledges also help us plan and prepare an accurate budget for 2027.

So grab your flannel, bring your dancing toes, and join us tomorrow for Bluegrass Sunday at TDC. We can’t wait to worship with you!

The Downtown Church Food Collection

The Downtown Church is collecting food to support our community, and TDY is doing its part!

Next time you’re at church, grab an item off the food collection wall in the main hallway and bring it back with you.

Let’s make a difference, one item at a time!

TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT!

But before we begin our descent into sleep-deprived madness, we must defeat our greatest enemy: HUNGRY KIDS.

A few reminders for tonight:

* EAT DINNER BEFORE YOU ARRIVE! We’ll have plenty of snacks to fuel the madness, but dinner will NOT be provided. Please feed your student before drop-off. Our volunteers’ sanity depends on it.
* BRING A PILLOW & SLEEPING BAG. We’ll have designated sleeping areas for anyone who decides sleep might not be the enemy after all.

Get ready for a night of fun, friends, and questionable decision-making after midnight. We’ll see you tonight at 7:30 PM!

Pickup is Saturday morning at 6:30 AM. Good luck, parents. You’ve got this.
