every sunday
sunday school
At the beginning of worship all our children are in the service with us. We offer an intergenerational moment for children in worship and then go to Sunday School. We have a preschool through kindergarten class, a 1st through 4th grade class and a 5th grade and up class. We have Nursery care available each Sunday. SHINE is our curriculum for the school year. On the first Sunday of the month all ages gather together for Desert Palm Kids Church (DPKC)

youth trips
Twice a year we travel somewhere in the Southwest to serve other and explore new places. We have journeyed to Flagstaff where we served in a community garden and to Tucson/Nogales where we learned about how we can advocate for immigrants and others. We know families face a lot of costs and fees with schools and activities, so we keep these trips affordable and also offer scholarships if needed.

what becky has to say about desert palm
Before the service was over, I knew I had found a church home for my family..
what mark has to say about desert palm
Many people who have gone church-shopping have had the dispiriting realization that congregations have different ideas about the meaning of "all are welcome." When we arrived in Arizona, Desert Palm embraced us as newcomers to Phoenix, as the parents of a rambunctious child, and as people who believe that the Christian faith asks to be radically inclusive. We've stayed because we've watched Desert Palm bring a spirit of extravagant welcome to people from all walks of life every Sunday, and use its time between services to stand up for education, make the case for social justice, and support those in need in our community.
