Welcome to DOOR

Dwellers have begun! This fall we have 7 teams of commited young and not-so-young adults serving in Atlanta, Chicago, Hollywood, Miami and San Antonio.
Dwellers live in intentional Christian community and serve in their neighborhoods. They share household chores and ideas for neighborhood gardens or basketball games. They'll work, study, go to school like others but are commited to a simple lifestyle and exploring the radical call Jesus makes on our lives to live differently and abundantly.

Register your mission trip today! Register your church group, mission trip, or school group with the registration form. We accept registrations until week is full but we limit participants to protect our neighborhoods and our facilities.

$295 per person for a week in 2010. (College groups serve for $275.)

You may register for 2011 at the 2010 rates by using the 2010 registration forms submitted before Sept 1.

Please Contact Marie for availability at 303-295-3667 or email Marie.

We congratulate Brian and Kathleen on their recent marriage! But sadly we've accepted Brian's resignation. He will be moving on to other vocational opportunities. Thank you Brian for your many years of dedication and service to DOOR. We hope the absolute best for you and Kathleen!

Now to the task of filling big shoes- We've posted the job opening all around Chicago and on some of the best sites to catch the eye of outstanding applicants. It is listed in the Employment section, Click on HOME and About DOOR. Also look for the position on Idealist.org, HBCUconnect.com and JustMeans.com. While the other two are job listing services, JustMeans is a site dedicated to doing business better and has a great connection to passionate non-profits.

If you're interested in applying send your resume to Krista@doornetwork.org.

"..Good at getting together and having meetings and you tend to think that having a meeting equals building a relationship. Simply put, this isn’t true. As a black pastor, I have been part of the Mennonite church for over 20 years. I am tired of going to meetings. Don’t get me wrong, you people run good meetings,” he said, then continued. “I wish folks would take the time to get to know me.” More »

Remembered

A couple of weeks ago I watched “Troy,” a movie loosely based on Homer’s Iliad. A scene near the beginning where Achilles must decide if he is going to join with the rest of the Greek kings in attacking Troy caught my attention. He has gone to his mother for advice and she offers, More »

Being divorced was really bad and it meant that you had committed a sin that would prevent complete forgiveness and restoration. It was almost, but not quite an unpardonable sin. Today, almost 30 years later, that conversation seems uniformed, ignorant and judgmental. More »

Mission Statement

Discovering Opportunities for Outreach and Reflection (DOOR) is a faith based network of urban service-learning programs that expose, educate, challenge, and motivate participants to respond to the issues and concerns facing an increasingly urban world. Program offerings range from a weekend to a year and include opportunities for individuals and groups.

DOOR invites our Discover, Discern and Dwell participants to See the face of God in the city.

By experiencing God’s love and shalom in ever-expanding new ways we can share and demonstrate God’s alternatives to the evils of racism, poverty and violence that tear down our communities and lives.
