NEEDED: Coffee Crew & Grace Greeters!
Sunday mornings at Grace start with bright welcoming smiles and proceed with hot warming coffee. This is our “face-forward” that both our guests and members initially experience and will carry with them. We are looking for some fresh faces to fill some available slots on our roster.
Prerequisites are: Welcome Greeter - give a smile, say hello, & pass a program. Coffee - fill a pot, load a pack of coffee, & push a button. To take part in this ministry opportunity, please contact: Coffee/Greeter Coordinator ~ Jon McLaughlin OR email church.office@gccmemphis.com

Help make the Easter egg hunt a success by donating fillable plastic eggs and candy or other small items to fill the eggs. Bins to accept donations are in the entry hallway.
Finders/Keepers Marriage Conference
How ‘bout a marriage conference that’s both helpful and fun! Join us April 24th-26th for Finders/Keepers. Presented for both married and singles, clinical psychologist, Dr. John L. Cox will lead us in exploring both how singles can be growing in the skills to one day do marriage, and how married couples can be building closeness, resolving (avoiding) those same ole fights, making sense of forgiveness, and mutual mattering. Dr. Cox will go beyond "communication skills" and "getaway weekends" to more deeply address the abilities that God created us to need in order to find and build healthy marriages and dating. Topics will include intimacy, resolving conflict well, and making sense of your needs in marriage or dating. There will be plenty of time for Q & A. Dates: Friday, April 24th through Sunday, April 26th
Cost: $37.50/Adult ($75/Couple)
Childcare (nursery - 5th grade) and meals included.
Join us for a book discussion class on Dane Ortlund’s Gentle & Lowly
Christians know what Jesus Christ has done—but who is he? What is his deepest heart for his people, weary and faltering on their journey toward heaven? Jesus said he is “gentle and lowly in heart.” This book reflects on these words, opening up a neglected yet central truth about who he is for sinners and sufferers today.
Please sign up HERE if you wish to reimburse the church for the cost of the books.

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 Church Center as we will no longer use Tithe.Ly or Breeze after the start of the year.

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.
