giving the basicsThis month we partner with Giving the Basics Wichita for a hands-on mission opportunity.  We work in their warehouse on Wednesday, May 12, from 1-2:30 pm.

Working in the warehouse involves sorting and counting donated hygiene items. To volunteer contact Teresa Stange, email her, or Catherine Neelly Burton or call the church office, 316-684-5215.  We need 8-12 volunteers.

The Grace Lawn and Garden Teams are back to work.  All lawn and garden responsibilities at Grace are handled by volunteers, and you are invited to join!

The Garden Team meets most Friday mornings for garden projects including trimming, planting, and weeding.

The Lawn Team is more of an individual activity with a schedule for who mows the grass and when. The good news?  We now have a riding mower. Contact the church office to volunteer for either team at 316-684-5215.

Each month Grace invites you to contribute to our “Yellow Bag” Sundays.  Yellow reusable grocery bags are available in the building, and you are encouraged to fill them with the item of the month and return them to Grace. In April we collect food, and our donations go to the food pantry at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Wichita.  Please bring non-perishable food items to Grace by Sunday, April 25.

 

 

We are recognizing all of our high school and college graduates at Grace on Sunday, May 2.  If you would like your graduate recognized, please email by April 18 the following information to kirk@mygpc.org :

Would you like a pew?  Grace has some extra pews throughout our building, and we don’t need them. We have long, medium, and short pews, and if you want one, make us an offer. Contact Catherine Neelly Burton or Martin Burch for more information.
