APOSTOLIC ADVENTURES
It is the call of the church to fulfill the commands of Jesus to GO for the sake of the Gospel. This includes going to our friends and neighbors, colleagues and those we meet in our wonderful city, but also the country as a whole, and to the nations of the earth where God sends us.
Acts 1:8 “ But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth”
OPEN HOMES
Open Homes are smaller gatherings of Doha Fellowship people that meet in homes across the city. They are led by folks who have been identified and trained as Open Home Leaders by the DF Elders.
They meet on various days and times throughout the week. Open Homes are a place where DF folks get the opportunity to truly know each other and go on a journey together of becoming followers of Christ. While majority are speaking English, we have Open Homes where people speak Spanish, Arabic, Tamil & Hindi
If you are not part of an Open Home get in touch with us at the church office or checkout our Open Home boards at the DF villa and contact one of the Open Home Leaders closest to where you are living..
