Current Study - Compassionate Contact
Come explore the complexity of healing miracles in the Gospels. Each week we will look at one passage in depth; you can find our booklet here.
For the Next Five Weeks we are looking at the theme of Compassionate Contact. In this section, we focus on the role of touch in Jesus healing miracles—not just as a physical act, but as a powerful sign of PRESENCE, CONNECTION, AND RESTORED DIGNITY. These stories speak to the experience of people that are seen as untouchable, shameful, or out of place—and the healing that comes through compassionate contact.

Youth Formation | Danville Youth Connection (DYC)
Danville Youth Connection (DYC) is a shared ministry among Trinity, the Presbyterian Church of Danville, and the First Christian Church in Danville. The mission of DYC is to provide a Christ-centered place for 6th-12th graders to talk, play, pray, serve, support, and grow as disciples with the guidance and care of adults who love them, empowering all for ministry.
DYC meets at 5:30pm when school is in session. The location of each gathering varies by month; locations are available through the newsletter and bulletin.
High School students meet every Wednesday at 7:15am during the school year at Dry Stack for devotions and breakfast.
DYC is a great place to find true friendships, exciting events, and important lessons about life’s challenges. Most importantly, it’s a safe place to connect with a real God who is passionately seeking us! Contact Molly Boyd at The Presbyterian Church of Danville to get involved.
