Events and Reminders:

Men’s Pigskin Preview – September 8: Men, stick around after second service and join us for football, food, and fellowship as we watch some NFL games and hear more about out upcoming Men’s Weekend in October. We will have games on in the Eagle’s Nest and maybe even get our own game of football going on the back lawn. RSVP on HERE to help us plan for food!

GraceKids Promotion Sunday – September 8: It’s time to promote them to their upcoming grades. Children who are 3 years of age and older may be moving up to a new class for the 2024-2025 Sunday School year (depending on their age and grade level). When you check your child in at the kiosk, please check their name tag to see which classroom they’ve been assigned.

Youth Fall Kickoff – September 8: Grace Youth is kicking off on Sunday, September 8 at 3:30pm for students in grades 6-12. There will be games, prizes, snacks, student-led worship, teaching and small group time. Start the year off right by making some new friends!

Women’s Fall Fellowship – September 15: Ladies! We are so excited to get together again! Join us in the Eagle’s Nest directly after 10am worship for lunch, games and fellowship. This year we will press into our theme “Serve One Another.” Come meet our Women’s Council and get connected with ladies at Grace! Please bring bottles of hand sanitizer and boxes of tissues to donate to Peck Elementary school staff.

Baptism – September 22: Baptism is an important step in our faith journey. We believe the Lord Jesus Christ instituted two ordinances to be observed by all believers until His return, Baptism and The Lord’s Supper (Communion). Their observance by all believers is urged (Matthew 28:19; 1 Corinthians 11:23-26). If you would like to take this step in your walk with Jesus, please register on Realm.

Simple Worship – September 22: Join us for a time of worship with the community through song! We will worship together at Gate City Vineyard Church at 7pm. Invite your neighbors and friends!

Covenant Class – September 29: Interested in becoming a Covenantor (member) at Grace? Or just curious about who we are? Join us for Covenant Class on Sunday September 29 in Room 201. This class will introduce you to Grace’s constitution and theological position papers as well as dig a little more deeply into what makes Grace unique. Be sure to register on Realm.

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!
