Churchwide Fast -Feb 15-22: During this Fasting Week, we would ask all of us to be intentionally praying:
• For God to make us WHOLEHEARTED in understanding His great love for us.
• For GLOBAL AWAKENING and revival as we look towards our Faith Promise Missions month in March
• For our church to experience an OUTPOURING of God’s Presence and leadership, that we might become the church He is creating us to be.

Wholehearted Praise Service - Feb 22: It's time to break our fast with corporate praise!

We look forward to rejoicing with you! 6pm
Multiethnic Conversations -Feb 22 - March 22: We believe that God has called us to embrace diversity in a genuine way, based on the teachings of the Gospel. To achieve this, we are offering a series of 5 weekly sessions based on the book Multiethnic Conversations by Mark DeYmaz and Oneya Fennell Okuwobi. This workbook serves as a practical guide to help us grow as a more diverse church. The group will meet at Grace on Sunday mornings at 11:30 in Room 201. We have limited spots available for 12 participants.
Before you begin the sessions at Grace, please purchase an e-book or physical copy of the book from Amazon or your preferred bookseller. Alternatively, we have a few copies available at Grace for a suggested donation of $20. To prepare for the first session, please read and complete pages 11-35, titled "Week One," in the book.
We ask everyone who calls Grace home to participate in this study at least once. Each time you attend the series of sessions, you will hear new stories and perspectives from participants in the class. We look forward to taking this journey with you! Register HERE

Women Retreat - April 18: Life can leave our souls dry and overextended—but God invites us to be renewed. Join us for Soul Watering, a one-day retreat designed to nourish your soul, deepen your roots, and prepare you for growth. Through time in Scripture, worship, and guided reflection, we’ll create intentional space to slow down, connect with God, and connect with other women. Together, we’ll explore what it means to care for our souls—and to love and care for others from a place of fullness.
Our guest speaker is Pastor Beth Graham, lead pastor of Gate City Vineyard Church in Greensboro, NC. She has served in worship, women’s ministry, young adults, and pastoral leadership across churches in North Carolina and New York. Beth holds degrees from Dartmouth College and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and is passionate about teaching God’s Word, worship, and building spiritually healthy, authentic communities.
