Tuesday evenings (6:00-7:30 pm), we offer Children's Bible Quizzing for grades 1-6. Our kids focus on a specific portion of the Bible, learning the stories and memorizing specific Bible verses.

Our Darby Creek Quizzers have won numerous awards, and we are so proud of all they have accomplished!
Grief Share
It hurts to lose someone.Find help at GriefShare.
GriefShare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life’s most difficult experiences. You don’t have to go through the grieving process alone.
Our GriefShare groups run at various times throughout the year. For more information about our next GriefShare group meeting, please contact admin@darbycreeknaz.org
Adult Discipleship Classes
Each quarter we offer adult discipleship classes (think Sunday School). These classes range from topical to Bible studies. Some classes we've done in the past focus on things like - prayer, sharing Christ with others, how to live like Jesus, caring for others, and studies on various books of the Bible.
These small groups are a great way to not only grow in your knowledge and understanding of Jesus, but also grow in relationship with others who are on the journey of faith!
These classes take place on Sunday evenings from 6:00-7:00 pm - all are welcome!
Missions
Here at Darby Creek we are passionate about sharing Christ with others! We participate in various missions projects throughout the year - both here at home and around the world!
Right now, we are collecting Crisis Care Kits that will be sent to places like Ukraine, Turkey, Syria, and those affected by the tornados in Mississippi.
We also are passionate about finding ways to love our neighbors here at home! We engage our community through service projects, community events, and many other ways!
Pastoral Support
At Darby Creek we have a dynamic pastoral team who is ready to serve - we offer private pastoral care sessions, pre-marital counseling, marriage counseling, family counseling, and other pastoral care.
We love our Darby Creek families, friends, and our community and we are here to help however we can.
