Grace’s directory is available online through the Church Center App! This is a great way to stay connected with one another as a church family. You can choose to share as much or as little of your information as you are comfortable with—each member simply opts in to be included. A helpful guide is available here to walk you through how to use the app and access the directory.

While you are there, we encourage you to sign up for the online prayer chain (Grace at Prayer) as well, so we can continue to care for and pray for one another throughout the week.
Building Renovation Updates
 
Here is what happened this week at Grace:
  • The garage is nearing completion with all the exterior completed this week
  • The work on the auditorium platform is completed
  • The Lower Level: Ceiling tiles were delivered, all the lighting is set in place, all the final HVAC is in place
  • The nursery cabinetry was installed and the new countertop was templated, lighting and HVAC was completed, framing and drywall for the new security shutter was installed
Join us for a Men's Breakfast on Saturday, August 8th from 7:00am - 8:00am. We will enjoy breakfast, fellowship, a short devotion, and a time of prayer. Middle-school aged boys and up are invited to attend. If you plan to join us on August 8th, please click this link to register.
Work on the Children’s Wing has begun! During the renovation the Children’s Ministries have temporarily moved to the Multipurpose Room and Pyro Room. We redesigned and combined our Beginner and Children’s church to be a children’s church service followed by small group tasks and snacks. We are studying Jesus’ parables.

Because of this transition, we ask that families use the front stairs across from Pastor Joel’s office.
  • The baby nursery is in Pastor Matt's office
  • 2- and 3-year-olds: Parents may walk toddlers directly to the Pyro Room.
  • 4‑year‑olds through 3rd grade: Due to the narrower stairway, please drop these children off in the hallway at the top of the stairs.
  • Leaders and gatekeepers will guide them safely downstairs.
  • At the end of the service, leaders will be stationed at the top of the stairs with walkie‑talkies and will call for your children to come up when you arrive.
  • For safety, please do not send older children to pick up younger siblings.
We know this is a change from our usual routine, but these procedures will help us keep every child safe during the renovation.
Grace’s Summer Schedule began on Sunday, May 24. There will be no Sunday school between Memorial Day and Labor Day. The congregation will continue to gather for worship at 10:00 a.m.
