MARK YOUR CALENDARS
Wednesday Nights @ SDFC are back September 7!
Come stop by SDFC on Wednesdays beginning 9/7 for a time of community fellowship & learning! We kick off the evening with Wednesday Night Dinners, served in the Friendship Plaza from 5:30-6:30pm. Then, our mid-week programming for kids, teens, and adults takes place from 6:30-8pm.

Wednesday nights offer great opportunities to serve, learn, and connect with other members of our church community. We look forward to having you there!
Rehearsals for this year’s Kid’s Choir Christmas Musical start up in September, so we are currently recruiting adult volunteers that would like to help out throughout the fall!

Come join us from 6-8pm on Wednesday nights as we work with the amazing kids of our community to get them performance-ready by December!

Support Our Nursery
Here are just a couple ways you can plug-in and support the SDFC Nursery, which provides care for children ages 0-3 during both our 9am Sunday School hour as well as throughout our Sunday Morning Worship service.: 
  • VOLUNTEER:  We are always recruiting volunteers to work in the Nursery on Sunday mornings (both 9am & 10:30am hours!). Please let us know if you're interested in adding your name to our list of Nursery volunteers!
     
  • DONATE:  Over the next few weeks, we'll be collecting donations of gently-used toys and children's books to refresh our current stock in the Nursery. Feel free to contact Jordan to coordinate a drop-off if you have items you'd like to donate!
For more info about our Nursery and any of these ways to get involved, please contact Jordan Pitkin at jordan@sdfcnaz.com
