Altar Flowers If you have signed up for flowers on the altar, please remember to remit $30. You can put it in an offering envelope and mark it “flowers.” Please silence cell phones during Worship Service. Thank you.

Sojourners will meet on July 5 at 10 AM. We will begin study of JEREMIAH. The book records the message and the prophetic ministry of Jeremiah, whose personal life and struggles are made known to us in greater depth and detail than those of any other OT prophet.

Who has requested prayers? Who was that person I talked to after service? What’s going on at Grace this month?
Those are the types of questions that are easily answered if you join The Table! When you join, fill out your profile and share a picture of yourself, you are adding to the online church directory that is available instantly to other members...but don’t worry, it is not made public. It is only visible to members and regular attenders of Grace. It is also a great way to share information, prayer requests, ask for assistance, and more.

Food For The poor was founded on the basis of this Gospel. We seek out the poorest of the poor in 16 different countries, aiding some of the most destitute. In each face we see the living Christ, who is hungry, thirsty, a stranger and naked. Our ministry focuses on the greatest needs of the destitute. Just as our Lord served those society ignored, we are there; feeding the hungry, building water wells for thirsty villages building houses for the homeless, aiding the impoverished elderly, raising orphans in a loving atmosphere of Christian discipline, healing the sick or overcoming illiteracy by supporting school.
