When a couple of Grace Church members attended the Dream for Darfur Rally in Massachusetts on October 8, they were especially touched and inspired by the testimony of Carine Gakuba of Rwanda.

Four weekends in late April and May say a lot about Grace’s commitment to growth and outreach. There was Chalk Day when our Mission Team sponsored an event to raise awareness of global warming. A week later was "Pod Cleaning." Volunteers worked very hard to go through Grace’s memorabilia and trash and treasures. Two other events followed - a Yard Sale and the Spring Fling.
