October 11th

Welcome to Grace

Grace Community Church is affiliated with the

Baptist Convention of Iowa.

Making disciples of our neighbors, the nations and the next generation in radical Christian love. 

Dear Church Family,

This Sunday’s ministry moment gives us a glimpse of how God is working in the lives of students and families throughout Boone and Greene County with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Through athletics, friendships, and everyday opportunities at school, God is opening doors to share His love, build faith, and point young people toward Christ.

Come learn what God is doing in our local middle school, high school, and college and be encouraged by our teachers and students. “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians‬ ‭3‬:‭20‬-‭21‬ ‭


Peace,

Gabrielle Lusk

Prayer Requests

  • Please pray for Aiden and Emily Kraft as they make the move from Northern California to Minneapolis. Aiden made one trip by himself last week, and together they will make the final move with the moving truck this week. Pray for safe travels and a smooth transition back to the Midwest.

  • Pray for FCA to continue to grow. Pray that the students involved in the program are encouraged and have opportunities to share the love of Christ with those in their schools.

'The Fight For Us' Marriage Retreat

Join us for a marriage conference that aims to help you break free from the “dysfunctional dance” while helping you build life-giving rhythms and practical tools. 

But don't just let it end there!  Get a baby sitter, a hotel room or ship the kids off to grandma's for the night of November 6th and 7th to allow yourselves time for deeper connection and conversation that will be brought up in this video course.  

The course will be based off of the book "The Fight for Us" by Rebekah and Gabe Lyons but you will also hear from some local couples about their marriage experiences.

Discipleship Triangle Groups

A Discipleship Triangle is a group of three Christians who meet weekly to read God’s Word

obediently (Matt. 7:24–27), pray fervently (James 5:16), and bear burdens (Gal. 6:1–5).

Triangles provide a context for disciples of Jesus to have true fellowship with God

and one another by walking in the light and practicing the truth. It's our vision at Grace that

every church member be an integral part of a triangle that encourages them to grow in their faith, pursue specific acts of obedience, and actively battle sin.

They consist of 2-4 people (same gender) who meet weekly. Click the link below to find out more, or talk to Pastor Ben.

For the Kids

Children are always welcome to stay with you in the service, but here are options:

  • Nursery: Available for children ages 0-3 on the north side of the building. Drop your child/ren off any time between 9:20-11:45. Please make sure to sign in and leave some information about your child.

  • Children’s Church: Children ages 4-4th grade stay with you in service until they are dismissed for Children’s Church. This takes place in the youth room, and kids have their own church service with singing, prayer, offering, and a lesson. Children may be picked up at the conclusion of the service or can remain in the room until after Sunday School. Children will not be dismissed unless an adult is there to pick them up.

  • Parent/Child room: Parents can take their children here for a quiet space to calm down during the service. This room is not staffed, but feel free to use it if that is the best option for your child. This room will have the service livestreamed, and it is right next door to the nursery.

  • Nursing Room: Available Sunday mornings from 9-12. It is across the hall from the nursery. This room will also have the service livestreamed.

Note: All of our childcare staff over the age of 18 have been through Ministry Safe training. We will always have 2 adults in each room.
