Weekly Grace News: April 8, 2024

Do you know our “FAMILY” Acronym and What it Means?

Our Mission: To make disciples who live from the gospel, crossing ethnic and economic lines.

How We Pursue Our Mission: At Grace, we have adopted the FAMILY acronym, which helps explain our goals as a church:

F – Following Jesus
A – Authentic Diversity
M – Missional Community
I – Impacting the City
L – Living from the Gospel
Y – Yielding to the Spirit

The FAMILY acronym is also lived out through our small groups, which we call FAMILY groups. These are blended so that anyone may join one (regardless of marital status, age, etc.). They are how we grow in our discipleship together as a church FAMILY and make an impact for the Lord!
