Are You Looking for a Circle of Friends? A Small Group May Be the Answer. Here at Denbigh United we have several Small Groups and are eager to start more. A Small Group is a group of 6-12 people who meet weekly or every other week for Bible study/discussion, prayer, fellowship and service. Deep and abiding friendships can grow in these groups as believers study God’s Word and support one another. Our existing groups are listed below. If you are interested in an existing group or in being a part of a new group, please contact Deborah Dail or Tim Jacoby. Sunday evenings from 5:30 -7:00 p.m. This group meets at the church and childcare is provided. The facilitator is Kristi Spivey, and the group is currently studying If You Want to Walk on Water, You Have to Get Out of the Boat. The next meeting is May 3. For information, call Kristi at (757) 814-9538. Sunday evenings from 5:30-7:30 p.m. This group discusses state, national and world current events in the context of the Presbyterian faith. This group meets at the home of Dale and Keith Pennell. This group will meet on May 10 and 24. For more information, contact Dale Pennell at (757) 303-7762. Monday evenings (every week) at 7:30 p.m. This group meets at the home of Tim and Debbie Jacoby. The group is studying the book of Daniel. For more information, contact Tim Jacoby at (412) 720-4808.

The study material is dated, so each Sunday stands alone if you are unable to attend every week. All adults who desire to study the Bible are welcome. The class meets Sunday mornings from 9:15 to 10:15 in the Conference Room. Ladies Discussion Group The Ladies discussion group is studying The Prayer of Jabez.

It is parked in the parking lot behind the church. We will be having the church name and contact information put on the bus locally in the very near future. At the recommendation of the Vehicle Purchase and Policies Team and with the approval of the Session we purchased a 2013 Ford Starcraft 14-passenger (plus driver) bus for $38,000. It had 16,322 miles prior to being delivered to the church. Cost of delivery was $840. The Session approved the remaining donated funds for the vehicle be used for vehicle upkeep and maintenance costs (insurance, fuel, licensing, inspections, etc.) as well as for hiring drivers (as needed) when we may not have an adequate number of volunteer drivers. We are grateful to all the donors who have made the purchase of the bus possible. The bus purchase will enhance our outreach ministries and provide many opportunities for various groups in the church to travel together to events, camps and conferences. Who knows what else God may have in mind for us to fully use our vehicle for His glory? Thank you to Fred Wong who has chaired the Vehicle Purchase and Policies Team and to team members: Keith Pennell, Dean Adams, Verni Saunders, Pete Marshall and Gerry Ellis. 5 Sunday, May 31, 2:30 PM – The Amorous Ambassador presented by Poquoson Island Players at TNCC.

The family of Robert "Ham" Fairfield would like to express our appreciation for the thoughts, prayers, cards, flowers, and visits at the rehab and hospital during his final months. Ham was always proud to be a member of Denbigh United Presbyterian Church and tried to attend church until he became too weak. He enjoyed the services at The Gardens at Warwick Forest where he resided when our church was represented. To my many friends at DUPC (and there are none better), many thanks for your cards, prayers, letters and visits over the last few weeks. What a blessing you have been! Once again, many thanks. Jan Spruill Many thanks for all of the prayers and good thoughts during my recent surgery. David Anson Thanks for the lovely flow ers, card s and for all of you r prayers d u ring m y recent su rgery. Irene Hoopes Our family was so proud to have Deborah Dail conduct his funeral services. She listened to all of our stories and presented a beautiful eulogy for our husband, father, and grandfather. We are all consoled by knowing he is at peace and pain free in the arms of the Lord. Many thanks to our church family for all the thoughts, prayers, cards, calls, visits, emails and food you gave me during my recent surgery and continuing recovery. You nourished my spirit as well as my body and I will be forever grateful. Elaine Minch Again, we would like to express our appreciation to each and everyone for their acts of kindness in making Ham's final days more comfortable. I just wanted to say thank you so much for hosting the free clothes give-away. I recently started a new job and your event was a blessing for me. I was able to share a few of the dress pants that didn't fit me with a coworker who said she didn't have any dress pants. Thank you so much.
