PASTOR APPRECIATION MONTH
October is Pastor Appreciation Month and the perfect time to com-
mit to praying for and encouraging our Pastor on a regular basis. Pastor
appreciation month is an excellent time to help demonstrate love, ap-
preciation and encouragement for our pastor. Also take some time to
give a special thank you to our Pastoral Staff. Baskets will be located in
the foyer through the month of October for cards.

SANCTUARY SEATING
Our church board has studied, prayed, and voted to replace our current
seating with luxury sanctuary chairs. By doing this, we go from seating
300 people in our sanctuary to a capacity of 400 peo-
ple! Prayerfully consider providing a chair for your entire family, even
those who may not yet attend Grace! The total amount needed for
these seats will be $20,000! That means each chair is $50...pledge
sheets are available at the Connections Center for you to make a com-
mitment to make Grace's sanctuary more attractive and comfortable for
worshiping the Lord! Pledges can be made as a one-time gift, weekly,
or monthly! Contact the church office with any questions.
LIFE GROUPS
All of these groups meet each Sunday morning at 9:45-10:40am.
