Worship Plan:  Sermon Series  August, September 2022
 
We continue our summer sermon series, as we move into August and then September.  Ashley, Daniel, and I have been preaching and teaching in July on Jesus, specifically the "I Am" statements in John. 
 


Now we move into scriptures about the church for August and discover "Who are We?"   
What is the nature of the church? 
How are we to act and function? 
What should be our priorities, in the midst of many ministries?   
How can the church "recover" from COVID?   
 
We invite you to read, study and pray over these scriptures for August (Yes, this is a homework assignment from Dr. Jamieson!):
August 14 - “The Body of Christ” – 1 Corinthians 12:4-7; 12-31
August 21 - “One Mind, One Body” – Philippians 2:1-13 
August 28 - “One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism” – Ephesians 4:1-7; 11-16

Your presence is needed and valuable in this process. WE STILL HAVE OPPENINGS!
These small-group meetings (no more than 16 participants) are being held in August and September for our pastors to get to know us and our church. Hosted in members' homes or at the church, these meetings will be a vital part of a successful transition process for Grace UMC as we begin doing ministry together with our new team.

Please sign up NOW to attend one of these meetings by: 

  • Going to our website by clicking here and clicking the blue "Register for a Grace-ful Introduction Meeting Here" button on our homepage
  • Scanning the QR code at right
  • Completing a paper sign-up form (these can be found in Sunday School classrooms and at the Church Office)


Your presence is a crucial part in this process. If you need any assistance, please contact the Church Office. 











 
We need your involvement! Come One, Come all! 
We need your help! We need sew-ers, stuffers, ribbon pinners, ironers, and baggers.  We hope to make approximately 200 pillows in about two hours.  Come join the fun while at the same time providing a much-needed service to those in need. 

We will have a light lunch afterwards. 
 
For questions, please call Linda Smith or Kathy Batten.
