Upcoming Events
Bethesda Bible Study
Bethesda is meeting on Thursdays 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm. We are meeting through May, taking the week of Spring Break off.
An adapted and interactive Bible study for 18+ adults, learners of all abilities.
Prayer Room
We have a room at Grace dedicated to prayer! You can sign up for 1 hour segments from 9am-4pm & 6pm-7pm every week, Monday through Thursday. Our hope is that we will have the room filled with praying folks with others or privately. The room will be comfortable with prayer prompts to guide you should you need it.
Sign up today!
Kid's Quest
KID'S QUEST is a great opportunity for kids to get together mid-week to learn and grow in their relationship with Jesus. This year our focus is to help our kids develop good rhythms in their walk with Jesus and grow in discipleship. We will be teaching on Bible study, prayer, rest and reflection, service and sharing our faith with the connection to Be With Jesus (Abide), Be Like Jesus (Transformation), and Do What Jesus Did (Imitate).
Join us on Tuesdays from 6:30-8pm
GriefShare
Lose someone you love recently? This could be a spouse, family member, friend, or someone else you were close to. Join us for GriefShare!
Our GriefShare support group is a safe, welcoming place where people understand the difficult emotions of grief. Through this 13-week group, you’ll discover what to expect in the days ahead and what’s “normal” in grief. Since there are no neat, orderly stages of grief, you’ll learn helpful ways of coping with grief, in all its unpredictability—and gain solid support each step of the way.
We will start on Sunday, February 9 at 1pm.
Join a Community
Community is where we grow in our ability to love God and love others deeply. Communities are gatherings of 10-15 people who meet weekly to share a meal, pray for one another, and learn to live like Jesus. As disciples of Jesus, we strive to re-order our lives around the lifestyle of Jesus, so we can do what He did. We call this spiritual formation. We do this by living in community, having accountability with other Jesus followers, reading scripture, holding deep honest conversations, creating space for the Spirit to work, and incorporating spiritual practices into our daily lives. The goal of communities is to allow God to transform our lives, so we become more like Jesus for God's glory and the sake of others!
Women's Bible Study
Join us for Spring Women’s Bible Study, April 8th-May 20!
Tuesday AM 9am-11am: Ephesians. In this 7-session study, Bible teachers, authors, and friends Jackie Hill Perry, Jasmine Holmes, and Melissa Kruger walk through the book of Ephesians, examining the invaluable truths Paul’s letter holds for us today. Along the way, they’ll help us understand the riches of our inheritance as daughters of our heavenly Father, as well as what it means to walk in a manner worthy of our calling.
Tuesday PM 6:30pm-8:30pm: Esther. In this 7-session study, Kelly Minter invites you into the daring faith modeled by Esther and her cousin Mordecai—a faith developed over time, rooted in the goodness of God, lived out through extraordinary circumstances, and used to change the world. Although our time looks different from Esther’s, our God is just as active and faithful today, and He has called you for such a time as this.

Seder Gathering
Please join us for a Seder Gathering on April 17th at 6pm. A Seder gathering is a special meal celebrated during Passover, where Jewish families come together to retell the story of their ancestors' exodus from Egypt, remembering their struggles and celebrating their freedom. It involves symbolic foods, prayers, songs, and the sharing of stories, creating a meaningful and reflective experience for all who participate. Come, engage in a spirit of unity, and reflect on themes of liberation and hope. It will be a beautiful opportunity for fellowship, education, and shared reflection. This will be a representative Seder, which means that it is not a full meal, but a light representation of the elements Seder normally has.
Registration fee: $13 per ticket
Childcare not provided, but Elementary age and above are welcomed.
***The entire Seder Gathering will be gluten free
We will open up more tables as necessary, so don’t be shy about attending!
