Dear Church Family,
Just a friendly reminder that this weekend is that time of year when we set our clocks forward one hour.

As we spring ahead, may any loss of sleep be met by the joy of sunrise. 🌄

Daylight saving time is coming soon to push clocks forward. Here's when you'll lose an hour of sleep. (Adobe Stock).

Dear Grace Family and Friends,
It is with a heavy heart that I share the news that our dear brother, Allen Benson, went home to be with the Lord this morning. As many of you know, Allen had been courageously battling cancer over these past months.

Allen has been a vital and cherished member of our church family for over 25 years. He was not only a faithful servant in our congregation, but also a dear friend to so many. His steady presence, warm spirit, and love for Christ have left a lasting mark on our community.

I had the privilege of visiting Allen yesterday. We enjoyed time together. As I was leaving, I asked him, “Allen, are you ready?” He immediately replied, “I’m ready.” What a testimony to the hope we have in Christ.

Please remember Kay in your prayers in the days ahead. We will share more information soon regarding Allen’s memorial service.

In Christ’s comfort and hope,
Pastor Ken

Dear Friends,
We ask you to pause and pray for Changes for Madagascar, a ministry that Grace Church supports.

A cyclone has devastated the area where the Changes for Madagascar facility is located. Homes are completely destroyed in a place where people already have so little. Pray for our brother Noah who is there working with children whose families are impacted by this crisis.

Thank you for partnering with us through prayer.
