Grace News
Summer SErvice times start this sunday!
Beginning this Sunday, June 21 through September 6, we will be moving to two Sunday morning services for the summer season. New service times: 9 & 10:30 AM
As many families travel throughout the summer, this adjusted schedule helps us care well for our volunteers and ministry teams by creating a more refreshing rhythm for those who faithfully serve each week. With fewer services, there is greater opportunity for rotation, rest, and reprieve throughout the summer before we kick off a busy fall season together. Thank you for your flexibility and support. We look forward to worshiping with you this summer!
Explore Grace -Postponed
This two-part class has been postponed until the fall - stay tuned!
Whether you’re brand new to Grace or simply want a deeper look into the heart and mission of our church, you’ll get a clear and meaningful picture of who we are. In a relaxed, informal setting, you’ll hear our story, explore our values, and discover what it really means to be part of the Grace family. It’s also a great chance to connect with others asking the same questions, and to bring your own. While this class is a prerequisite for those interested in serving in key roles or pursuing church membership, its real purpose is simple: to help you take your next step in your journey, whatever that may be.

Do you know seniors who would like to garden? GROW Community Garden (Marden location - at Grace Community Church) is starting a new garden group: Seeds to Sage. We are looking for 8 seniors who would like garden space in raised garden beds. All materials (garden space, soil, seeds/plants, garden tools) provided. Gardeners would meet once every 2 weeks to garden together. There is some funding for transportation cost to attend the meeting if you don't drive. Gardening experience welcome but not necessary.
Any interested seniors can contact info@guelphtoollibrary.org with "GROW Garden Seeds to Sage" in the subject line.
Food Needs In Guelph
Food needs in Guelph are especially urgent right now. Local food banks, Chalmers, and neighbourhood food cupboards are seeing a significant increase in demand. While we are planning to have a Food Collection Sunday coming up in June, the congregation is encouraged to consider making donations directly whenever possible, even before then. Thank you for your continued care and support for our community!
