Grace Families,
 
We have a great opportunity on Wednesday, November 8, 2017 at 6 PM.  It’s a family event with our missionary friend, Dr. Bruce Triplehorn.  Bruce will be arriving at 5 PM for a time to catch with us if you are able to come at that time.  The fellowship meal will start at 6 PM.  Then at 6:45 PM Bruce will have a time with the adults about the great need in Chad over a cup of coffee or tea.  You know Bruce is a part of our missionary family.  And families should take some time to be together.  A picture of Bruce is attached to this email.
Special Request:
Bruce is in need of more financial support.  Do you know of a family in our community who might be interested in helping to support his ministry?  Invite them to the fellowship meal and his time of sharing with us.  Thanks.
Please reply to let us know that you are planning to come.  And let us know if you would be bringing a hot or cold dish to share for the fellowship meal.
Thank you,
Pastor John

GBIM Missionaries

The families of Grace support three missionaries from World Encompass Partners.  These missionaries are David & Susan Griffith (France), Bill & Beckie Kiddoo (England) and Bruce & Lisa Tripplehorn (Brazil and Africa).  All three missionaries visit us every few years to give us an update of their mission work in those countries.  We appreciate the close connection we have with these families.  God is working in very special ways through their lives as they train nationals to lead the work in each country.

CRU Missionaries (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ)

It is our privilege to support Bill & Kathy Horlacher.
  The Horlacher's minister to international students who come to our country for their education.  Bridges International is the name of the ministry.  It is exciting to hear about what God is doing to reach international students with the Gospel message.  These students will be returning to their countries to serve in leadership capacities at the conclusion of their studies.  How much better for the spread of the Gospel to have these students return knowing the Lord Jesus Christ as their personal Savior and Lord.  Bill and his staff do their best in discipleship.


Ministries We Support

The families of Grace help to support Camp Joy-El through contributions and use our facilities to hold the Released Time Bible Program for Falling Spring Elementary School.  Students in third through fifth grade meet at our church on Wednesday afternoons from 1:30-2:30 PM during the school year.  This program is run by volunteers from the church and the community.  Approximately 40 students and 14 volunteers participate in our program.

We also support Pregnancy Ministries (PMI) through contributions and at times serve this ministry through volunteering and giving items for new born babies. 

We support Child Evangelism Fellowship's School Good News Clubs through financial support and the use of our facility for Falling Spring Elementary School.  The students in these programs are in Kindergarten through Second Grade.  Volunteers come from the community and our church family.
