Creativity and Christ: A Theology of Creativity and Worship

,

All adults are invited to the Great Room for Sunday School in August.

The focus for the month is on art and music in worship.  The first two weeks center on music.  We look at songs and hymns used in worship and note where scripture is present as well as some of the theology.

The final two weeks are led by the Grace Arts team. This group transforms our worship spaces throughout the year, enhancing the worship experience. You’ll hear testimonies from them related to art and faith and have the chance for some hands on activities.

Bus Tickets and Morning Worship: July 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 7 am in the Grace alcove.

Guests are greeted with smiles, coffee, water, and a place to sit. Tickets are distributed at 8 am, and a brief worship service with communion follows.  Everyone is invited to stay for worship. The worship service lasts about 15 minutes.

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.
