Special Services

December is a busy month in every schedule! Save these dates for special times to celebrate Christ's birth with the Grace Church family:

Carols of Christmas

Our evening service on Sunday, December 18, will be entirely dedicated to singing Christmas hymns! We will meet at the normal time, 6 p.m.

Candlelight Service

A Grace family tradition! All groups from elementary children up will meet in the auditorium for a special time of Bible reading and singing Christmas hymns. We will end the evening singing "Silent Night" by candlelight. Wednesday, December 21 at 7 p.m.

Christmas and New Year's Day

Since both these holidays fall on a Sunday this year, we will only gather for morning worship each week at 11 a.m. We will not meet for Bible Hour or an evening service.

Offices Closed

The church offices will be closed from December 23-26 to allow staff to enjoy time with their families!

Offices will also be closed on Monday, January 2. In case of an emergency, a pastor can be reached by calling the office (440-255-7045) and pressing #4.
