Do You Attend Grace on Sundays? God is filling our house, and we are starting to burst at the seams during our Sunday 9:30 and 11am services! This is an answer to prayer, and we are super grateful. You can help us make room for lost people by switching to a Saturday night service. If at all possible, we would love for you to bring your friends and family to either our 4:30 or 6pm Saturday services. Just think, you can help save a life with when and where you sit!
