Two Year
Ministry Plan

A few weeks ago, Grace hosted our first Parenting Culture conference—a focused time for parents of 3rd and 4th graders to hear relevant teaching, connect with one another, and orient themselves to discipling their children in intentional ways. About 300 parents attended from all our campuses and heard biblical truths about parenting as well as teaching on the importance of authority and raising humble and resilient kids. They also had conversations around the topics of sex, technology, and community. Not only was it an important time for our parents to gather and be equipped while their children are in these formative years, it was a good chance for parents to step outside their usual routines and cast vision for their families.

Will you join us in prayer for all our parents as they disciple the next generation of believers? If you would like to see some of the resources offered at the conference, click below.

While many of us prefer not to think about it, the process of aging is part of life. And part of stewardship for the believer is thinking and planning strategically so we can honor God and support our families as we navigate the aging process.

Legacy is a ministry that focuses on planning, caring, and finishing well. The goal is to equip our members to think biblically about topics like aging, spiritual and financial stewardship, caring for elderly parents, and investing in the next generation of believers. This summer, Legacy offered Aging Well, a class that addressed several of these topics: leaving a spiritual legacy, stewarding our bodies, stewarding our resources, stewarding for the future, and practical planning. Fifty of our members participated, and they were blessed to hear from different speakers and be equipped with helpful resources.

We are thankful to be able to engage these topics with hope and not fear in the context of biblical community. If you are interested in learning more about Legacy and future classes, please contact Julia Eldred at [email protected].

Last month, we were thrilled to release No One Else, a collection of four original songs that we recorded live with our church body. This collection includes “To The King,” “No One Else,” “Mercies Have No End,” and “The Lord’s Prayer.” As with all our original music, our hope is that these melodies and lyrics will bring encouragement and clarity to you as we declare our faith in Jesus and all that he's done.

All songs are born out of unique circumstances, and the title song of this collection is no exception. The inspiration behind “No One Else” came from a desire to minister well to an audience in Paupa New Guinea on a mission trip.
