Sunday, December 20th
Hello Grace House Family,
Last Sunday we learned about the secrets of God together. This past Wednesday night we had a large crowd and a big time at our Down Home Christmas fellowship. We have such amazing and loving people at Grace House. I had such a good time mingling and talking with people as did everyone else.
This Sunday you are
in store for a real treat. We will be having some special Christmas music from our worship team. Then we will be blessed by our Grace House children as they share their Christmas program. It is such a joyous time when our children minister to us in this way. Franie and Jason do such a fantastic job in our children's ministry. After the children share, I'll conclude the service with a brief message entitled, WALKING IN A WINTER WONDERLAND. I'll be sharing three things with you to help you keep
your heart and mind positioned to walk through winter with a song in your heart. The service will be no longer than our usual time length. So please plan to be with us to celebrate this joyous time of year.
Come and worship with us this Sunday at 9:30 a.m. and bring a friend with you. All of us were created to be
part of something so much bigger than we are. We are part of the Kingdom and the family of God.
Looking forward to Sunday,
Blessings,
Pastor Eddie
