DECEMBER MISSION ENVELOPES are designated to support Help & Hope for the Homeless, Inc. This is a local charity founded by Grace member John Loss. The purpose of Help and Hope is to aid a homeless individual or family as they receive job training and associated skills needed to get their life on track toward success. If you would like to support their efforts, please place your mission envelope in the offering plate, send it to the office, or donate to Monthly Missions online during December. Feel free to talk with John if you have questions.
OUR ADVENT GIVING TREES are available through January 9 in the chapel and narthex. We are accepting items that will help Heart, Love, & Soul, Lighthouse (Magdalene), and Niagara Gospel Rescue Mission. If you would like to support these agencies, please take a tag (or two) from the tree and bring the items back to the table unwrapped by January 9.
GIFT CARD donations to Wegmans, TOPS, and Walmart will be used by our Advent Giving Tree partner agencies to purchase needed food and toiletry items for their clients. If you care to donate in this way, please place gift cards in the box provided under each tree by January 9, or give them to Erin in the office. All donated cards will be stored securely.
THE ALTAR GUILD is currently looking for members to join. The guild is run on a monthly commitment and you will be matched with a current guild member and/or trained on the weekly guild duties. Please contact either the church office or Erika Tuscher if you are interested.
