Serving Grace Kids
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” Please help us make Grace a place where all children are welcomed, known, and loved. You can start by serving once or twice a month with our children under five years old. They are really wonderful people that inspire our community's faith. Also, immediate help needed in the nursery at both services. If you would like to serve or have any questions, contact Matt Johnson at matt@graceseattle.org

Adult Christian Formation Series
Sundays @ 10:30AM
Between Services - Sanctuary
To many of us, the Bible can be daunting and seemingly impossible to understand. Or, for others, we can become so familiar with the story of God that it becomes somewhat disconnected from the reality of our day-to-day lives. God's story is a compelling description of the reality of our human existence, and it has everything to do with our life here and now. During this 10-week class, Understanding and Living God's Story: Connecting our Head and Heart, John Haralson and Debbie Smith will re-tell the big story of God and connect the story to the practical issues and questions we face as we live the other six days of the week. This will be a great class for people who are new to faith as well as those who have been a Christian all their life.
