OUTREACH: SPECIAL COLLECTIONS FOR FOSTER CARE CHILDREN
In January, Grace Church sponsored a Foster Care Forum. Many blessings were shared as a result, including a newly formed partnership with Resources of Hope in Whiteland. Resources of Hope provides clothes and other necessary items to foster children. The immediate need is for children’s underwear, diapers, and wipes. Beginning today, Grace Church, along with the United Methodist Women and the Missions Team, will be collecting these items. Please bring them to the Lobby and place in the container marked Resources of Hope. Many thanks for helping this special ministry.

YOUTH: SUMMER OPENING GAMES
Sunday, June 2, 5-7p, Province Park
ATTENTION ALL CURRENT 6TH GRADE STUDENTS! In a few short weeks, you will be officially a part of Roots! It’s definitely an exciting time. I fully acknowledge how intimidating it can be when you’re the youngest person in a group of people you don’t know very well. That’s why we’re hosting the Summer Opening Games. We’re hanging out at Province Park to play games, do a few crafts, and eat food. This is a low-key opportunity for you to be introduced to the group.
