GRACE ANNOUNCEMENTS

  • POTLUCKS...we now have a potluck dinner every other Wednesday Evening at 6:00pm in building B. The potlucks will be on the Evenings that the video series will be presented. We now have a sitter for the children, so come along as a family and enjoy an evening of good food, fellowship, Bible study and fun!!!
  • Ladies... did you know that we now have a monthly Prayer Breakfast? Our next get together will be on Saturday, January 9th at 9:30am-10:30am. Bring along a breakfast dish to share and don't forget your Bibles. A great opportunity to invite you co-workers, neighbors, and friends.
  • Don't forget for "2010" we are reading through the Bible in a year. If you would like to join the many other's in the church who are doing this, see Henry Dodge for a schedule of reading the Bible through in a Year! You will be blessed and you read God's Word daily in 2010!
  • Thank you to the many willing hands that have been signing up for the "fellowship table" on Sunday mornings. We are still in need of volunteers for the month of March. God bless you as you serve Him.
  • Now that the weather is cooling down we will be looking for volunteers to help with keeping the weeds around the church under control. Mike Rush has been doing a wonderful job, but the property is just to large for one person to handle. Bring along a rake and shovel and pick a corner of the property to work on.
  • AWANA is now in full swing here at Grace.We are looking for as many in the church body to come out and help that can. You don't have to commit to every Sunday evening, but as free time becomes available stop by and see where you can be used to help with the children's ministry.
  • We are in need of more nursery volunteers. If you would like to help out on a Sunday morning in the nursery please mark you contact information sheet and place it in the offering.
  • There are many regular attenders that have never filled out a communication sheet which is located inside your weekly bulletin. Please fill this sheet out so that we have up to date information in our church computer systems. We are missing many email addresses... if you did not give us your email address please do so this Sunday. Also, if you have any changes to any information let us know so that we can get current with our records.
  • The windows at the church are still in need of a good cleaning. With the cooler weather we are having it would be a great family time opportunity to come out with windex and paper towel and clean the church windows together.
  • Don't forget if you have an announcement you would like posted to this page, please email it to Laurie@azgrace.com.
