News from Grace Community Church

Join me tonight at 7:30pm at Grace Farms in the continued series, "God Who?" as we look at another attribute of God-- 'God the Economist'. We plan to discuss how we can bring this attribute of God into our jobs and into our economy.

But first, we will study how God set up the economic system in ancient Israel. This will enable us to see what God has to say about economic systems in a sinful world.

A Note from Julia:

This Sunday, our monthly Kids4Kids program will be 'Paying It Forward' this way: stuffing Easter Eggs for kids at The Bridgeport Rescue Mission. We'll be putting candy & an Easter message into individual eggs that will be handed out Easter day as meals are served at the Mission.

All are welcome to bring one bag of 'individually sealed' candy that we'll stuff into the eggs.
