Discovering Opportunities for Outreach and Reflection (DOOR)

Discovering Opportunities for Outreach and Reflection (DOOR) is a faith-based network of six cities that provides opportunities for service, learning and leadership development within the urban context.

We host volunteers from a weekend to a year, providing opportunities for individuals and groups. These opportunities are provided through the following program options:

Discover: For groups to participate in coordinated weekend and weeklong trips designed to challenge them to “See the face of God in the city” as they spend time listening, volunteering, worshiping and reflecting on their experiences

Discern: For individuals to spend one to three months in an environment of service, learning and leadership by working as support staff with the Discover program or doing a three-month internship

Dwell: For individuals to spend a year living in intentional Christian community while serving in a local agency placement, worshiping in an urban congregation, and reflecting together as a community

We highlight the strengths of our cities in each program. We believe this is best accomplished through collaboration, mutuality and partnership.
