Welcome to Grace!

 Minimize

Maybe it's late at night and you're staring at your computer screen, searching for something to get excited about.

Maybe it's Sunday morning and you're thinking that church is probably a good idea, but aren't ready to take the risk of sitting through something that's either unintelligible or so boring that it hurts your brain.

Somehow...no matter what time or day it is...you've ended up at this site. And you can keep on surfing, or you can stop to see if there's something here that finally touches your soul.

We think there is. We invite you to learn more. And we invite you to join us. Come on in...
        

News and Updates!

  • Our Summer worship schedule is now underway. We invite you to join us at one of two services of Word and Sacrament offered on different days and times...
    • Thursday evening at 7:30am. Got plans for the weekend? A camping trip or time on the boat? This service is just right for you.
    • Sunday morning at 9:00am. One service at mid-morning means plenty of Sabbath time left for a day with family and friends.
  • Our Men's Bible Study is reading two of Paul's letters: Titus and Philemon.We invite you to join us on Saturday, July 11, at 9:00am. We'll be in the comfy chairs outside Fellowship Hall (enter near the office). The coffee pot will be on; the donuts will be fresh. All we need is you.
  • Becoming Women of Influence...is the title of a new Bible study/fellowship group under way this summer for young women in the congregation and the community-at-large. It meets on Monday evenings from 7:30-8:45pm at Corinna Bench's home near Elmore. The study will focus on the second half of 1 Samuel and the story of David. The format is relaxed and casual. The goal is to grow in knowledge of the Word and devotion of God, as well as to build some new friendships among young women. For more information, please contact Corinna Bench at 419/862-3576. Bring your Bible and join us!
  • Suds & Salvation is our summer discussion series hosted at the Portage Inn...an opportunity to toss around our ideas about faith and life and even learn some new things in the process. That series continues on Tuesday, July 14, at 7:00pm. Our topic is "Sweet Charity." Do we have to give our stuff away? What happens to us and others when we do? Who deserves our charity and who doesn't? Should be another good conversation. We hope you'll stop by the bar and join us.
  • Ice Cream Social...join us on Monday, July 27, as we raise money to support the Elmore Food Pantry. For $5 you get a choice of sandwich and chips, plus a piece of home-made cake or pie and ice cream. Root beer floats are available, too.We're serving from 4:30-7:00pm. All proceeds will help us pay for the nearly 11,000 meals served annually from the Elmore Food Pantry. Thanks!
  • Operation Oreo marches on. Grace continues to support the troops with our monthly contact program for those deployed overseas. Email graceelc@gmail.com to learn more about this program, and how you can be a part of it.
  • Trouble? Illness? Confusion? Frustration? We all have those times in our lives. So...how may we pray for you? We invite you to share your prayer concerns with us by using the Prayer Line box in the left column. (Pr. David will keep those concerns in strictest confidence unless you tell him otherwise.) Access to our saving God in prayer is a powerful privilege. Let us put that power to work for you.
