Lutheran Women in Mission Our local society of the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League will meet at 6:00 p.m. this Thursday, January 29. We will discuss hosting the Dal-North Zone Board of Directors meeting here in February and ways we can be part of “Grace Makes a Difference” this year. See Susan Knowles if you have questions or items you would like to put on the agenda.
Think of it as Facebook for Church — only better. Our Table is PRIVATE—only members of Grace can access it. Our Elders are all on Board and using it to share information, prayer requests, and to keep in touch with each other. You can share, too. Put up photos. Read news about what is happening here at Grace. Check the calendar. Look up the phone number of a member. Want to know more about our new Church Social Network? An information sheet is available at the Welcome Center. We’ve got a space for you at the Table! UPDATE: The mobile app for ANDROID has been updated and is very useful — a great improvement.
We have a second printing of our 2015 Membership Directories— revision 1! This revision includes both members and regular attenders. We have also made the changes/corrections that were submitted. Copies are available at the Welcome Center in the foyer/narthex of the Church. Please inform the church office of any additional correction/additions/changes.
Pastor’s Sunday morning Bible Class is working through the book of Ephesians! All are welcome to join us.
Pastor is also planning to offer His Adult Instruction Class for those who wish to become members of Grace or simply want to know more about the teachings of the Lutheran Church. This class will take place in late February. Please let Pastor know if you are interested in attending.
We have a SMALL number of dedicated volunteers that run our PowerPoint presentations that project the service onto the screen during our worship services. We are looking for some others who will help out. The PowerPoint presentation is created by the Pastor during the week. All you need to do is show up and run it during the service. It is easy to do and any training you need will be provided. There is an orange colored sign up sheet on the bulletin board next to the mailboxes. Please consider helping here at Grace in this way. Thought about ELECTRONIC GIVING? You can set up direct deposits of your offerings to the church account at NO COST TO YOU. It is a very convenient and secure way to support the ministry of our congregation. If you want more information or would like to set this up, contact the church office.
Printed copies of the February Calendars, Birthdays & Anniversaries are available at the Welcome Center.
