Our Ministries at Desert Springs Church

God places a spiritual gifting within every believer. Among the variety of our ministries at Desert Springs Church, you and your family can find a place to use those gifts!

Once you determine which gift or gifts you have, start using them to glorify God. By using your spiritual gifts to volunteer in a ministry or around your church, you are moving the Kingdom of God forward. And that applies no matter how small the job may seem.

With all of these many ways to get involved, it is a fantastic way to connect with others while serving the Lord. Our church is very missional and encourage you to step into one or more ministry and learn how to Serve Christ by Serving Others.
