We provide financial support and volunteers who prepare and serve meals during committed weeks, and an ongoing collection and delivery of daily bath needs (shaving, soap, shampoo, and toothpaste). DCC welcomes the opportunity to serve a wonderful institution in a time of great need, and to meet and break bread with the people finding shelter there. For the people and the hearts that make this place happen, let us give thanks!

Sister Parish promotes intercultural and ecumenical understanding by establishing linkages between churches in the United States and faith-based communities in Central America. The linkages are based on direct person-to-person contact, with delegates living in each other’s homes and sharing each other’s realities. Our current Joint Prayer Ministry is with San Antonio Catholic Church in San Antonio, Guatemala. For the past several years we have exchanged delegations, shared projects, and lifted up our prayers through our shared goals of consciousness-raising and solidarity.
Each year volunteers from DCC help San Ramon Valley United Methodist Church host the Interfaith Council of Contra Costa County’s Winter Nights Shelter for homeless families for the first half of February.
