Today’s Message December 2, 2018 Prayer Requests
Welcome Guests! If this is your first time here, we’re excited to have you join us. Please take a moment to fill out the guest welcome card in today’s bulletin and bring it to the welcome table in the foyer to pick up your free gift.
Kids’ Church Kids’ Church is available during both services for children from 4 to 6 years old. Children will be staying in the worship center with their parents throughout worship, announcements and greeting time. They will be dismissed to Kids’ Church after the final worship song, meeting their teachers at the doors in the back of the worship center. Parents should pick up their children from Kids’ Church following the service. We also have a room for nursing mothers in the kids’ wing.

Missions Pledges This is a reminder that we are collecting the 2019 missions pledges. Our 2018 missions pledge was $73,095. So far, we have pledges for $52,900 for 2019. We would ask you to prayerfully consider how you would give financially to support our missions partners in the coming year.
Annual Meeting - December 9 Please join us next Sunday, December 9, at 9:45 am for a brief annual meeting. We are re-imagining the meeting this year to be more of a celebration of what God has done through Grace Chapel this past year as well as what we are believing God for in 2019. The meeting will last from 9:45 to 10:10 am. Then we will return to our Engage groups. Voting members, please remember to sign in and cast your ballot on the 2019 proposed budget right after the meeting.
Operation Christmas Hope Operation Christmas Hope assists local veterans and families in need at the holidays with food, clothing and Christmas gifts. Stop by the Operation Christmas Hope tree in the foyer today and pick up a tag telling you what gift to purchase for those in need. We ask that all items be returned to the church, unwrapped, by December 9.
Men’s Breakfast - December 8 All men age 18 and older are invited to join us for our monthly men’s breakfast on Saturday, December 8 at 8:00 am. We’ll be eating a delicious breakfast, sharing a word from God and enjoying one another’s company.
