Your donations to Dwell’s Disaster Relief Fund are making a real difference in the lives of people in need around the world. Recently Dwell received a special thank-you note from a house church leader in Ethiopia. He was desperate to feed his family, and received a vital gift from his church, made possible by a $30,000 relief contribution from Dwell this spring.

His encouraging thank-you note is in the picture. Here’s a translation:

Dwell is offering a new resource on its website that can help you better understand yourself and others.

The study of the temperaments used to be standard learning in discipleship 20 years ago.

These ministries have gone through an extensive vetting process, including multiple field visits to observe the work and conversations with their leadership.

Dwell's website offers a wealth of information, giving users from around the world access to thousands of teachings, scholarly and practical essays and classes, and information about Dwell’s many ministries and activities.

Thank you to all of the Dwell households who committed to the 2022 Annual General Fund Pledge Campaign. We covered the church's proposed operating budget of just over $8.7 million, including several strategic initiatives. 

You can see more details at dwellcc.org/give/budget.

We celebrate a generous church! Now we move on to the good work on all that God has put on our plates. 

Brian Adams asks you to consider joining the Epic prayer team to be an essential part of the success of this year's camp--"We wouldn't be able to do it without the prayer of our church."

Adult ministries hosted a special baking event where home churches submitted cakes to be raffled off. Main Campus raised $1,500 for Akili Christian High School. 4th Street collected $2,200 to help urban students attend summer camps.

We're so thankful for how Dwell members have supported our Global Partners through yet another challenging year. In the midst of a global pandemic, a civil war, natural disasters, political upheaval, and the daily weight of the church, the Lord sustained our dear friends. This past year the Lord added to their numbers, and there are now 27,606 people in over 3,000 home churches across all our Partners.
