Sunday Worship, Cookie Exchange, Christmas Caroling, and More!

Grace Evangelical Free Church
Grace News! December 4, 2025
Sunday Worship

Sunday Worship

As we continue to celebrate the season of Advent, we also return to our series in Chapters 2 - 4 of the Gospel of John, "Signs of a Savior." This Sunday, we'll look at Jesus' conversation with his disciples immediately after his encounter with the woman at the well. Even as he showed her the living water for thirsty souls, now we'll see that for which Jesus hungers. Do we hunger for the same thing? The text is John 4:31-42, and the sermon is titled, "Hungry for a Harvest."

Join us at 9:30 am for prayer, 10:00 am for worship, and fellowship downstairs after the service.
