Dear friends and family,

There have been many questions and concerns brought to my attention and the attention of the elders over the past couple weeks concerning the recent changes in our membership policy. I want you to know that we are taking these questions and concerns very seriously and are reviewing the policies changes. We ask that you would pray with us for clarity and wisdom in this season. We also ask that you voice specific concerns with the leadership of the church so we can bring those concerns to light. Our greatest concern is to glorify the Lord with our decisions and secondarily, to minister to the needs of the congregation at Grace Community Church. One of the greatest needs we have is for unity of heart and resolve for the mission God has set before us. Pray for God’s glory to be shown and for our unity to result. Your Pastor,

Join us on Sunday

nights at 6:00 as we

continue our journey

through the book of

Acts.
