Are you new to Grace?  Have you been here awhile and still have some questions about us?  It’s time to ‘Get to Know Grace.’

Join Pastor Catherine Neelly Burton on Saturday, August 26, at 9 am for conversation about Grace.  Bring your questions and come ready to learn about who we are and what it means for us to follow Jesus as a church.

We gather at 9 am in the Grace Parlor and will be done no later than 10:30 am.

Questions? Contact Catherine, 684-5215, or Catherine@mygpc.org  RSVPs are encouraged but not required.  Children are welcome to join the class, and/or a nursery is provided.

 

 

 

 

 

Join us in worship on August 20 for the Blessing of the Backpacks.  This is a way for our church to offer prayer and blessing for students, teachers, school staff, and families at the start of the school year.  We’ll offer a blessing during both worship services.  In addition, older elementary school students will receive Bibles in worship.

The book club meets the final Tuesday of the month on August 29.  Our new book is One Thousand Gifts by Ann Voskamp. The group meets in homes. Contact Capri Zimerman prizslp@gmail.com or Catherine Neelly Burton, Catherine@mygpc.org for more information.

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.
