Women's Small Group
Thursdays, 9:30am, OARC

If you are looking for a group of diverse thinking, multi-aged women, you found it.  This group is an energetic, thoughtful, and supportive group of women with varied faith backgrounds and life experiences.  Our goal is to grow in our faith and understanding of God, others, and self. We read a variety of books ranging from traditional bible study to more topical or thematic studies.  Class is held on Thursday mornings from 9:30 - 11:00 throughout the year.  For current books or topic please contact Pastor Jenothy or  call the church office.

Lunch Bunch Groups

Spring Lunch Bunch Groups
Delicious lunch, lots of conversation, opportunity to enjoy the company of Grace members and friends: that is the goal of our Lunch Bunch groups. These groups, sponsored by the Leaves of Grace Team (formerly Senior Ministries), are open to anyone. Our hope is through these groups you get to know each other better. Groups meet once a month from March through June at a restaurant, date and time of the groups choosing. Fun!  Sign-up for the Lunch Bunch groups in the church lobby.  Please indicate if a Thursday or Friday lunch group works best for you.  If you are a snowbird and would like to participate in a Lunch Bunch group but won't be back until March, please contact Joyce Coleman by email or phone.
