Everyone needs a break from the hectic pace of work from time to time, and, I would venture to say that many of us probably don’t know a lot about our co-worker’s, their families, and their interests outside of work.  Since everyone enjoys a good time over a delicious meal what better way to allow us all to work on both of those needs---to take some time away from work and enjoy a great meal with one another’s families?  The DCI Cares Teams are asked to plan two social events per year—one in the summer and one in the winter--to help bridge this gap between the two worlds of ‘work life and home life’ and, to help us all build a strong bond of community and friendship through the process.

Co.Tribute is a giving platform DCI Cares uses to encourage all employees to donate time and money to charitable and ministry organizations in their local area. DCI empowers you with $25 each month, that does not come out of your paycheck, to give to the approved organization of your choice.  Also, you are incentivized both to give personally and by volunteering your time to support local organizations.  This is an amazing opportunity for all of us to give back to the causes that mean the most to us individually and that we believe are making a genuine difference locally, and possibly, throughout the world.

Email Hannah Knight, hknight@teamdci.com to request an account or to request for a Ministry to be added.

Diversified Conveyors Employees have an established Benevolence Fund. The purpose of the Employee Benevolence Fund is to aid fellow employees in cases of emergency and times of tragedy (disaster, disease, massive medical needs; uncontrollable situations). The funds are not intended for nonessential items such as, but not limited to: late rent, monthly car note, cable/internet bill assistance, etc. This fund should not be considered insurance, workman’s compensation, or a savings plan. The funds would be disbursed as determined by the Fund Administrators on an as needed basis. If your employment with DCI is terminated, all contributions will remain in the fund.

Employees can sign up for a contribution of their choosing with a minimum of one dollar ($1) into the fund per paycheck. (i.e. $1 per pay check; $26 dollars a year) Anyone who contributes is not automatically guaranteed a distribution. If you choose not to participate, you will not automatically be disqualified from receiving funds.

Sometimes life can simply be overwhelming.  Having a trained, Christ-centered professional to speak with about all of life’s ups and downs can be a major turning point for some.  All of us need counseling and professional guidance from time to time—whether it is due to marital stress, addiction, depression, anxiety, financial troubles, etc. Being able to understand and deal with whatever it is that has us “stuck in a rut” can be life changing.  Your privacy and anonymity are fully protected.

JH Outback is a non-profit ministry that was founded as JH Ranch in California nearly 40 years ago.  The JH Outback Adventures Program is designed to get family members away from the distractions of everyday life and into the "outback" (or undistracted environment) to focus on the relationships in life that matter the most: 1) their relationship with God, and 2) their relationship with their family. The following family combinations are eligible to attend: Husband and Wife, and Parent and Child (including Father/Son, Father/Daughter, Mother/Son, and Mother/Daughter) relationships, and there is a separate college age event.  Children must have reached their 13th birthday in order to attend. Over the course of a 48-hour weekend (Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon), you will be able to invest invaluable one-on-one time with a family member.  To register, visit www.jhoutback.com , and register for the appropriate event. When you get to the payment section, enter “BillDCICares”. Spouses of DCI employees may attend with their child for free as well. Also, many of the locations allow for engaged couples to attend as well.

If you have any questions, call Jim Meeks, Program Director, DCI Cares, at 901.302.4003, jmeeks@teamdci.com.

Every couple on the planet knows that having a great relationship with someone of the opposite sex takes work, patience, and a lot of time and even the best relationships experience strife and conflict from time to time. Unfortunately, instead of working through the issue(s) some relationships can end up in a bad spot, where two people may seem to just be surviving together instead of thriving with one another. No matter what the situation, when marital conflict reaches crisis mode and one party is considering ending the relationship, both parties need to know there is always hope available for healing the wounds and for a New Beginning. Step one is to call Cheryl Beasley, at Hope Restored at 1-417-335-5882, and tell her you are a DCI employee.

The struggle with pornography is a universal struggle and its cancerous effects can easily consume and destroy anyone of any age, background or education.  Pornography, it’s not just a word or a simple problem that fixes itself over time.  The temptation for those in this battle, and it is a real battle, is something they face every moment of every day.  With each passing day, more and more tempting and lustful images of every kind are constantly flashing before our eyes in relentless fashion.  The struggle is real, and the shame and guilt felt by the porn addict after ‘acting-out’ behavior is done is even more real.  Honest pornography addicts will tell you that their ‘drug of choice’ is every bit as addictive and destructive as heroin or meth.  Also, the desensitization of the brain from exposure to unhealthy images is incalculable.  However, there is hope and healing that can be found, giving freedom from this addiction that not only destroys individuals, but also tears families apart.  The Freedom Fight is a FREE resource to help those battling this addiction to get the help they need right away.
