5-Day Clubs return to Grace Church the week of July 29-August 2. Child Evangelism Fellowship (CEF) from Omaha has specially-trained youth from St. Paul (Asher & Andrew Bear, Natalie Hall), as well as two additional youth from Omaha, to lead three Bible clubs at three different locations. What a great mission outreach opportunity for our community! We challenge everyone to find a way to be involved. If you have volunteered to purchase items from the Donation Tree, please bring these items to the church by Sunday, July 21, with the exception of the fresh fruits and veggies, which can be dropped off Sunday, July 28. Thank you!
Grace Church is having a pool party Tuesday evening, July 30, at the St. Paul Pool from 7:15-9:15 pm for the CEF teens and any who would like to come. Plan to have a wonderful evening of fellowshipping with Grace people at the pool! The pool party is free!
Contact Lura Townsend (402.510.1872) or Jacie Kelley (308.850.8677) if you have any questions or would like more information about helping with any aspect of this outreach ministry to the children of our community.
