Young Adult Kickoff Tonight!

CHURCHWIDE

We’re so exited about the start of our brand new Young Adult Ministry! Join us this Friday, January 21st for our official kickoff event! We will be having a potluck feast and worship time, so bring a dish/side and a heart ready to worship the Lord! We will be hosting our kickoff at the Central Site (1201 McKee St) at 6pm.

Whether you’re in college, working, single, married, with or with out kids, etc… all young adults are invited to join us (If you have young children, feel free to bring them along)! We want this kickoff to be a time of worship and celebration for all grace gathering young adults.

2022 Giving Information and Envelopes

CHURCHWIDE

The IRS is allowing individuals to easily deduct up to $300 (up to $600 for married individuals filing jointly) in charitable contributions on their 2021 taxes on top of the standard deduction without needing to itemize. Take full advantage of the giving tax break.

Before filing your 2021 taxes where you’ve claimed a charitable giving deduction, you MUST have already received your giving statement. The IRS can disallow the deduction if the issue date of the statement is after your filing date. Don’t file your 2021 taxes claiming a charitable deduction before you have received your giving statement in January.

If you use giving envelopes (instead of online), pick up your 2022 giving envelopes at the Connections Center of your site beginning 12/12.
