Important Message From Our Deacons About Giving

Please be aware that, beginning Jan. 1, 2026, we will be consolidating our financial platform to Church Center. This will replace our current Tithe.Ly and Breeze systems. If you have automatic giving setup in Tithe.Ly or Breeze, we ask that you please be on the lookout to shift to Planning Center as we will no longer use Tithe.Ly or Breeze after the start of the year.

Nominations will be open through Sunday, November 30th. If you are a communing member of Grace Community Church, you may nominate as many men to this office as you are led. Please use the forms provided and drop them in the offering box at the back of the sanctuary to make your nominations.


Help in our Hospitality Department

Hey GCC! We need some help with a couple of things in our hospitality department. We’d love if you would pray-fully consider serving our church community in this way!

First up - we need a Sunday Fellowship Coordinator: This person will team up with Ginny Gafford to do a few tasks such as: send out a sign-up every 3 months or so for our greeters and coffee makers to pick their dates to serve, contact our coffee provider for needed items, etc. If you are interested in learning more about this roll and how you’d be helping, please check out our Hospitality Roles here.

Help with events: We need a group of 4-6 people to help with potlucks and events. Don’t worry, not with every event, but we do need a good rotation of people in place to help. Next upcoming event: November 16 Thanksgiving Potluck. 

Volunteer for our hospitality team

Pray for One Another

We pray for one another because we are connected in an authentic community of faith. Each day this week, take a moment to pray for some of the people God has planted in our community. Thank God for calling them to be members of our church family. Pray for His help and provision for their needs. Ask Him to encourage and grow them in their faith. If you have an opportunity, take a moment and send them a word of encouragement this week.
