ALTAR FLOWERS are given to the Glory of God and in thankfulness for the many blessings He has bestowed upon our “over 80” members throughout their lifetime. “To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity.” 2 Peter 3:18
NEXT SUNDAY’S READINGS are Isaiah 55:1-5, Romans 9:1-5, and Matthew 14:13-21.
PLEASE JOIN US in the chapel today after worship for a piece of cake and fellowship as we celebrate our Grace members who have or will turn 80 or older during 2026. We give thanks for all of the senior members of our Grace family.
NEXT SUNDAY is still open on the sign up sheet to provide a snack for our coffee hour after worship. The sign up sheet is located on the glass case if you are able to help.
FRIDAY IS THE LAST DAY to donate to our JULY MISSION, designated to support the Niagara Falls Lord’s Day Dinners. The founders of this mission, Yvonne and Matt Davis, provide free holiday meals to those in need at the VFW Post on Seneca Avenue. But they don’t limit their service to holidays only. Anyone who is hungry can knock on their Ashland Avenue home’s side window at any time and they will receive food to eat. They have been doing this for over thirty years, and they are funded strictly by donations. If you would like to help them with this mission, place your mission envelope in the offering plate today or donate online under “monthly mission” by Friday.
SUMMER MISSION PROJECT: Tables have been set up in the chapel and narthex to receive donations to our annual collection of school supplies and children’s underwear and socks. Needed supplies include (but are not limited to) notebooks, folders, crayons, markers, colored pencils, glue sticks, pens & pencils, scissors, and erasers. We also accept donations of socks and underwear, items that our children often go without because their family budgets cannot afford them. All donations will be distributed directly to students in need by teachers and school nurses in September.
ATTENTION THRIVENT MEMBERS: Kathy Majka has generously volunteered to help you with the Thrivent Cause Kits you are eligible to order every year. On the Thrivent website, under the “generosity” tab, you can choose a solar light or water filter. It will be sent to you free of charge, and Kathy will assemble it and return it to Thrivent. These items are distributed in disaster areas in the United States as well as around the world. Help your neighbor in Christ by ordering your kit today.
