Last Sunday we celebrated the gift of a Baldwin 6'4" grand piano, graciously donated by the Rev. David B. Powell and the Rev. Dr. Betsy Powell. As vital members of the Grace community, they are strong supporters of our music ministry and faithfully assist with Sunday services, as well as other worship and prayer opportunities. We are deeply grateful for this generous gift, which will enhance and strengthen our music ministry in the nave for years to come.

To help us welcome and experience our new piano, we invited recent high school graduate Aidan Voyles to introduce it to us. He played "All Creatures of our God and King" at the prelude and Claude Debussy's "Clair de Lune, Mvt. III" from Suite bergamasque during Communion.

VBS Mission Project: Share the Warmth

This year’s VBS is bringing a blast of winter fun to summer with it's Snowball Mountain Challenge theme. Even though we’re celebrating snow and chilly adventures, we’re also thinking ahead to the real winter months—especially for those in need. As part of VBS, we’re collecting gently used coats (all sizes welcome—kids and adults!) to help keep our neighbors warm when the temperatures drop later this year. This is a great way for the entire parish to participate in VBS! Bring your donations to church through Sunday, June 28. Let’s fill our collection with warmth, love, and generosity!

Brrrr… did someone say snow in June?! That’s right—this year’s VBS is bringing a blast of winter fun to summer with our Snowball Mountain Challenge! Kids will become daring Challengers, heading into a world of frosty games, snowy surprises, and faith-filled adventures. Guided daily by Ollie the Arctic Seal, who is reporting on the events, Challengers aren’t just playing games; they learn to draw strength from their faith through powerful stories of courage and hope.

This VBS delivers joy and meaning in equal measure, teaching kids that “I can do all things through him who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13 NRSV).

Kids 4 years old - rising 6th grade are invited to VBS at Grace, June 22-26 from 9 AM to 12 PM. Cost is $25 for the first child, $20 each additional child.
