A Message from Vicki Sheedy, DPC Chair:
I have the privilege of serving as chairman of the Diocesan Periodical Club (DPC) and want to remind everyone who we are, what we do and why we need your support. The DPC’s purpose is to spread the printed word of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We send money to seminarians to help purchase text books, purchase children’s books through our Miles of Pennies fund and buy prayer books, Bibles, and other teaching tools for missions that are supported by our Diocese.
This year Diocesan Women’s Ministries are encouraging churches to collect money for the DPC on Sunday, September 28. Download the DPC Sunday Bulletin Insert. The DPC is an organization in the Church dedicated solely to providing printed materials throughout the Anglican Communion to those who request help and cannot otherwise obtain it.
Recently DPC funds purchased:
A case of Bibles for elderly ministry at St. John’s Chapel
Pew Bibles for Citadel Cadets
Teen Bibles for York Place
Christian Children’s Books for the LAMB Institute in Honduras
Prayer Books for ministry in the Dominican Republic
Prayer Books for St. Christopher Camp and Conference Center
Hymnals and Prayer Books for two church plants
Text books for seminarians
Jesus tells us to go out into the world and spread the news to all people. All of us are not able to go out and do this, but we can help others do this by donating funds to purchase books. To learn more and order bookmarks to promote the work of the DPC contact DPC Coordinator Vicki Sheedy at
