EAST
We are hosting the PrayerWorks prayer room on Tuesday, August 1st, from 3:00pm to 10:00pm. A host is someone who simply welcomes people in, shows them around, and can offer to pray with people who visit. If each person took one hour, we would need just 14 people. If you would like to host, you can email levy.francois@gracegathering.com (a formal signup will be made available closer to the date). Either way, we’d love to have you stop by that day and pray!
Volunteers Needed for New Grace Block Party on August 6th
NEW GRACE
On Sunday, August 6th, our New Grace family is hosting a block party for the church and the community from 12-2:30pm. We’ll be giving away school supplies, eating food, and playing games! We are looking for day-of volunteers to help manage outdoor activities, prepare/grill/monitor food, setup decorations, and assist with general setup/teardown. We have signup sheets at the back of the sanctuary. Please see Hannah McGuire or Donna Masterson for questions!
