Sunday Worship
Join us this Sunday at 10 am as we gather for worship and fellowship. Our sermon series is titled Master Plan: The Letter to the Ephesians. We'll see that even before the foundations of the world, God has a master plan which would be fulfilled in and through Jesus Christ. Together, we'll discover our place in this plan and what it means for how we live. Our scripture passage this Sunday is Ephisians 4:1-16, and the sermon title is, "What Does God Want Us to Do?" |
How to Pray Class
Join Pastor Tom Hansen for a 3-week class called "How to Pray." This introduction to prayer will cover what prayer is, why it matters, a few different types of prayer, and how to make prayer an essential part of your daily life. The class will meet on Sundays in Taylor Hall from 12–1 pm on April 14, 21, and 28. Please click here to sign up for the class. |

Prayer Focus
Our prayer focus this week is youth and children. Even though the Pray For ME Campaign is officially over, please continue to lift up the person that you were partnered with. Help them to know that they are loved by God and being lifted up in prayer by the family of Grace Church. Lord, help our young people to work with diligence and put forth their best efforts. Please pray for our church family. Look for the Weekly Prayer Update sent out each week as a reminder to pray for the specific needs of our bothers and sisters in Christ. If you are not a Partner of Grace Church but would like to receive the prayer updates, contact office@gracestamford.org. If you or someone you know is in need of prayer, please contact office@gracestamford.org. |
