Winter Coats

Our Young at Heart ministry is currently conducting its annual coat and blanket drive, now through December 4. We encourage you to contribute your gently used or new items for area families who need them this winter. You will find the brown collection container located just outside the Grace coat closet in our narthex. Your contributions will be given to Interfaith Hospitality network.

The need for coats in particular is great. We have heard from at least two other area agencies, telling us that their inventory is very low.

Reminder: Operation Christmas Child

Just a reminder that your shoe boxes for the Operation Christmas Child project are due on Sunday. Remember to indicate whether the gift is for a boy or girl and include the $7.00 for handling. Thanks for being a blessing to a child!

Time Change Reminder

Please remember to set your clocks back one hour before going to bed Saturday evening. And then, well rested with that extra hour of sleep, join us in worship on Sunday morning. Services on Sunday will celebrate All Saints' Day and will include a special time of remembrance for all Grace members who have entered the Church Triumphant in the past year.

We will worship at 8:00 a.m. and 10:45 a.m., with Sunday School for all ages beginning at 9:15 a.m. Third grade parents will be meeting with Pastor Powell in the west elementary room during that time as well.



What does the number "38.8" mean to Grace? That is the rate at which the population of Grace children has grown since 1999.
