Desert Life Services (DLS) is our local community service arm. DLS is committed to championing and partnering with local activities and initiatives that enhance the lives of the local people of Alice Springs. 

One of the main projects we as a church do in partnership with DLS is our annual Help Day. In 2023 we saw over 100 volunteers from our DLC community come alongside and partner with local organisations doing amazing work within Alice Springs.

Throughout 2023 DLS has also partnered with a number of local organisations to provide music equipment to a local school, Mothers Day gifts to women in prison, Christmas hampers to Members of the Emergency Services and assist our local community members or organisations experiencing crisis situations. In December 2023 we partnered with Darwin Life Church to help provide 60 hampers to people in need in the Darwin area.
