Join us at New Canaan High School for our 9:30am worship service.
8:45am - Our Elders invite you to join them in the Choral Room for a time of communal prayer.
9:30am Service - We look forward to seeing you this Sunday for worship music, a salute to our graduating seniors, and Senior Pastor Cliffe Knechtle's message, From Doubt to Faith. We offer programming for children and teens, and a live stream of the service on our Facebook page and YouTube channel.
After the Service
Discipleship Class - Elder Ralph Schoenrock invites you to his summer study on the biblical narrative from Genesis to Revelation, where you'll explore how the Bible is one overarching story, God's "big story", of God's plan and purpose. The group will examine key themes throughout the biblical narrative and their implications for the part we play by our "little stories" here and now. Join the group in the Faculty Lounge.
TEACHER APPRECIATION
This past Sunday, we celebrated our volunteer Sunday school, Middle and High School teachers. Building and fortifying a foundation of faith in Jesus Christ is vital, and their commitment to babies through high schoolers is truly meaningful. As the school year winds down, and we get ready for our summer programming, please join us as we appreciate this team of amazing volunteers as well as our dedicated Youth Team leaders; Grace Kids - Adrienne McManus, Grace Middle School - Chris & Elena Jackson, and Grace Teens - Rob Knechtle and Irina Rodriguez.
