Happy Mother's Day
We are blessed to have guest worship leader Katie Nelson Troyer lead worship for us this Sunday, Mother's Day. Katie is on staff at Stanwich Church in Greenwich. |
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 foundation 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 4:25-5:2, and the sermon title is, "Walk in Love." |
How to Share the Gospel Class
Do you want to share the Gospel with your friends and family, but aren't sure how? Or are you worried about how they will respond? Join us for a 3-week class called How to Share the Gospel. We'll cover what the Gospel is, why we want to share it, and several practical steps to take to make evangelism (sharing the Gospel) a regular part of our lives. We'll meet in Taylor Hall from 12–1 pm on May 19, 26, and June 9. Sign up online or at the Welcome Table on Sunday. |

Help With Graphic Design
Do you enjoy graphic design? We are looking for a volunteer to help design graphics for our website, newsletter, slides, and sermon series. You would be a part of crafting the visual aspects of our ministries at Grace, and it would take about 30 minutes per week. If you are interested, please contact pastor Tom Hansen, tom@gracestamford.org. |

Our prayer focus this week is the community and world. Pray that God would use you to share the gospel with those in your community. Please pray for our church family.

Everyone is welcome to join us on Wednesday evenings from 7:30-8:30 pm in the sanctuary for a dedicated time of prayer. We would love to pray for you and with you. |
