Volunteers Needed Grace
Church has been serving the Food Pantry for 31 years. This
outreach is the longest running outreach program of Grace
Church. It is through volunteer effort that this program
continues. And we need more volunteers! Our church serves a two
week rotation four times a year. A volunteer typically works
three days a year. The opportunities are Tuesday, Thursday, and
Friday from 12:00 until 1:30. If you have any of these days and
times available a couple of times a year, you will feel rewarded
by giving this time to the Food Pantry. Interested? Please call
the church office.

Our Chapel Please note that
the Chapel doors are kept locked, except when required
to be open for worship and other church activities. Those wishing to use
the Chapel for private prayer and meditation during the week may
gain access by coming to the Grace Center during office hours.
