Advent Family Night (Pajama Party) is November 13 from 5:30-7 pm in the Great Room.
Families, grandparents, and friends, get ready for bed early and come in your pj’s to make a special nativity keepsake and hear stories told by our own Erin Lewis.
You don’t want to miss this sweet evening that helps prepare us all for the Advent season.
Trunk or Treat is back, but it looks a little different this year. Our Children’s ministry team has put some serious thought and heart into the events we offer. We want to glorify God and provide a way for our families to be involved in outreach as a family.
This year we are taking Trunk or Treat on the road to the parking lot of ADAMS SCHOOL. Please sign up to park/decorate your car on Sunday evening, October 30.
We set-up at 4 pm and open our trunks from 5-7pm. Your kids can trunk or treat, bring friends or hand out fun treats, quotes, erasers, play-dough, stickers, or any creative thing you can dream up. We need at least 15 cars to make this event possible. What a great opportunity to be the light in a neighborhood nearby.

Faith is a Verb.
This fall we explore a different verb from scripture each week in worship. Starting October 9, we look at five verbs that come from the Lord’s Supper: take, bless, break, give and feast. These five words guide our stewardship emphasis season this year.
God offers us abundant life. What does it look like to take this gift and to live faithfully? God blesses us, and in turn we have the opportunity to offer blessings. God took on flesh and stepped into the brokenness with us. As stewards of God’s gifts what do say to a broken world? We are given much, and in response what do we give? How do our gifts of time, talents and money relate to our discipleship? And finally, we celebrate all that God has done and feast together.
The Stewardship Team is leading the Numana Food Packing Event and is excited about the ways it ties to our theme. We have the opportunity to offer a blessing to a broken world We have the opportunity to give resources so that others might feast. You’ll be hearing more from the stewardship team in the coming weeks.
Each month Grace distributes bus tickets to people in our community. This happens on the 15th of the month, or if the 15th is a weekend we meet the Friday before. Volunteers and those receiving tickets begin to gather around 7 am in the Grace alcove. Guests are greeted with smiles, coffee, water, and a place to sit. Tickets are distributed at 8 am.
We invite all guests to a brief worship service with communion in the Great Room at 7:40 am.
We can always use volunteers to help with set-up, clean-up, and ticket distribution. Want to help? Contact Kirk Anderson, kirk@mygpc.org or 684-5215.
