Grace House Update from Pastor Eddie
Hey Grace House Family,
God is really blessing us. He is calling us to deeper commitment, greater love, and more passion. It is the time to pray, the time to love, the time to present ourselves for all He has for us. Please be in prayer during this season that we will see His Army arise. The doors of our region opened. The Holy Spirit moving in waves of glory and power. I am so grateful to be able to witness the wonderful things the Lord
is doing. He is worthy to be praised. Don't miss out on all He is doing. Believe, engage, expect, and be present.
See you Sunday!
Pastor Eddie
THIS SUNDAY MORNING
A NEW SERIES
SUNDAY - FEB. 9, 16, AND 23
Jesus said, "My sheep hear my voice," So there you have it. Jesus clearly taught that his followers have the ability to hear his voice. How does God speak to us? I am excited to teach on hearing God's voice. We will learn together several different ways God speaks to us. Topics like the Bible, the Spirit, spiritual gifts, dreams and visions and more will be a part of what we explore
God's together in this important and life-changing subject. Knowing what God has already spoken and the ways He continues to speak is instrumental to our growth in Christ and being able to discern God's will and direction for us in times of decision. You will hear powerful stories of how a word from God changed the entire direction of one man's life and his entire family, how a dream rescued someone from certain death, how a prompting of the Holy Spirit enabled a woman to receive a miracle she
had prayed for over 40 years, and many other such testimonies. This is the series that will help you to be better equipped to hear the voice of God. Please make preparations to be with us during this fascinating study.

They are a passionate, loving, and committed young couple whom we are delighted to welcome on board. They will serve in a part-time position and are seeking jobs and a place to live here in the Florence

Please pray for a smooth transition for them and for the Lord's leadership as we launch into this new area of ministry.

This is a great time to get connected....
We are so grateful for the togetherness that our life groups are enjoying.
Our Life Groups Ministry is touching lives. I rejoice to hear about how our groups are praying for one another, ministering the Word to one another, going places together, building deep relationships. This is an important part of the family life of belonging to a local congregation.
If you have questions about
being in a group or leading a group, just get with Hillard and Charlotte Matthews who lead our Life Groups ministry.
You are now able to view all the options on our new Life Groups website at LIFEGROUPS.INFO Please check it out!

We invite you to share with us any testimonies or stories of how God is working in your life. These will be used in different ways such as posting them here in my weekly update or sharing them in a Sunday service, Please state as briefly as you can but with enough information to help people understand just what the Lord has done for you. Send your story or testimony to Mikki and me at a new email address we have created just for these testimonies which is
