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!

 Minimize
  • Our summer worship schedule is now underway. We gather for Word and Sacrament on Thursday evening at 7:30pm and Sunday morning at 9:00am. We cordially invite you to join us!
  • Join PD for the Morning Munch. 7:30am, Monday through Friday, July 7-11, on YES-FM (89.3 for those in the Toledo area, on www.yeshome.com for those who want to stream the broadcast). It's a brief devotion to start your morning. Tune us in!
  • Theology on Tap is an opportunity to talk about faith issues in a unique and (we hope) inviting environment...the local pub. On four more Tuesday evenings this summer, we'll be holding forth at the Portage Inn in Elmore. Pastor David begins the evening at 7:00pm with an overview on a particular topic, and then opens the floor to questions and answers...all in the company of a little food and drink and friends. Our next session is coming up on July 8. The topic: The Devil Made Me Do It! What are we responsible for? Are just victims? Or should we just chalk up all our wrong decisions up to bad karma? Come join the discussion.
  • And if the library is more to your liking, we'll be there this summer, too. Pastoral associate Frank Raeske will be leading a book study and discussion based on C.S. Lewis' "The Screwtape Letters" on Wednesdays from June 11 through July 30. The group will meet from 7:00-8:30pm. There's no cost; you can even borrow the book from the library. An informational brochure is available at the library and here at the church...as well as a registration sheet (just to make sure we've got enough study materials). Hope you'll join us!
  • Martin Luther hangs out at the museum. And so will LYO (Grace's youth group) on Sunday, July 13. Join us after worship for brunch/lunch and a trip to the Toledo Museum of Art for our first-ever museum crawl. PD's got a search-and-find game in mind just to liven things up. Sign up at the info table or call the church office to let us know you're going.
  • Dixieland Worship? This should be great fun. Join us in Elmore's Well Park on Sunday, August 3, at 10:00am for worship with the Cake Walkin' Jass Band. There's a potluck picnic aftewards and games to follow that. Everyone's welcome. Come join us!
  • 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.
