Our Programs Continue To Grow We are reaching out to the community in more ways than ever before. The number of programs that are new to Grace over the last ten years is impressive, and many are the result of the last time the membership decided we should expand. Imagine what this list would look like ten years from now...

Plan For The Future The family of Grace is made up of many families and individuals, looking for guidance, fellowship and support. We have a tremendous group of children and youth raising their faith and preparing for the future. As our Program Director says in the video, they are Grace's future - if we lose them, we lose our future. That makes it very important that we plan for the future generations of Grace to continue the missions we have started. We'll need space to provide for those plans, and continue our growth. People feel "crowded" in our hallways, Sunday School classrooms, and large events. We've expanded to three services to accommodate our population. Is it time to build? Can we afford to wait? Follow God's Plan for Grace We've come a long way from the tiny white church that was our first home many years ago. Great things are happening for Grace. And as a result of our growth, we have stretched our current facility to its limit. If you've been in our human traffic jams after Sunday School, or tried to find a seat in the sanctuary at a crowded service, you already are familiar with our dilemma. Visitors to our church want to be welcomed and able to participate - our architect pointed out to us during our last building project that when a room is 80% full, people perceive it as crowded and are uncomfortable with that. We want to be sure that we have the room to continue our welcoming tradition, and fulfill God's plan for Grace to expand ministry to members and those we know and who know us.
