Family Meals

Last Easter we were the number 1 donor church. Let's keep it up!
Just bring food to the church and put it in the bin. 

This year they are asking for desserts (boxed mixes).

Welcome, Baby Gunnrik!

Matthew, Annalee, and Baby Gunnrik will be honored at a small reception shower after service on Sunday, July 23.

If you're able to "shower" this sweet little one, born in May, we encourage you to write a blessing in a beloved children's book, either new or used (instead of a card). The family would also appreciate baby toiletries and boy clothes sizes 9 months and larger. Thanks for showing your support to our littlest Grace friend!

OUR TAINTED ACTS OF GRACE

When my mother married the abusive man with whom she had begun an affair in response to my father’s affair, I was determined to maintain a loving relationship with her, despite his abuse toward both of us, even after she left me with friends and followed him thousands of miles away........
