Crop Walk: October 1

The annual Crop Walk is on October 1.  It is a one-mile walk in Sedgwick County Park, 6501 W 21st St. N, Wichita, 67205.

If it is a pretty day, it will be a great place for a walk.  There are sign-up sheets on the bulletin board just outside the Great Room by the coffee bar.

The money pledged to Crop Walk goes to help feed people.  One-fourth of the pledges stay here in Wichita. Local agencies receiving funds are:

  • City Life Church’s Neighborhood Fellowship’s Weekly Sunday Breakfast
  • St. Paul’s Lutheran Church’s Weekly Saturday Free Community Breakfast
  • United Methodist Open Door
  • Wichita Inter-Faith Ministries Food Programs.

The rest goes around the world with Church World service. I hope we can have a few walkers.  I will be there to greet you the day of the walk.

Bus Tickets and Worship: September 15

,

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 6:30 am in the Grace Alcove. Guests are greeted with smiles, coffee, water, and a place to sit. Tickets are distributed at 7:50 am.

We invite all guests to a brief worship service with communion in the Great Room at 7:35 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.

Yellow Bag Sundays – September 2017

Each month on the first Sunday you’re encouraged to take home a re-usable yellow grocery bag, put some non-perishable items in it, and bring it back the next week, or soon thereafter. Our contributions this month go the Mt. Vernon Presbyterian Church food pantry. Consider bringing toilet paper or canned vegetables in September.

Disciples…

,

What do disciples do?  We’re called to be disciples of Jesus Christ, but what does that mean?  Beginning September 17, we explore discipleship together in worship. Each week we look at what disciples do. Disciples: Risk, Hope, Love, and Witness. This list is not exclusive but gives us plenty to think about, talk about, and to put into action.
