Welcome! If this is your first time worshiping at Grace Lutheran, the Visitor Center in the Gathering Hall (right outside the sanctuary) has information for you about our congregation. Please ask questions of the greeters and say hello if you feel comfortable!

Here at Grace we worship in two alternating styles, organ-led liturgy or piano-led liturgy. The style for today, as well as which liturgical setting is used, is listed on the front cover of the days
bulletin.

We worship together in many ways: Standing, sitting, singing, speaking, listening. You are invited to worship in as many (or few) ways as you are comfortable and able. When following along in the bulletin, the congregation is invited to read the items in bold (often marked with a C:) aloud. Large print bulletins are available from the ushers.

Children belong and are welcome in worship! Children’s bulletins are available from the   ushers, and activity bags are available outside the doors to the sanctuary. The Gathering Hall also has a Corner just for Kids. This space is intended as a place for children to be and play if they need to step out of worship and during times of fellowship.

Communion – We welcome all people to the Lord’s table to receive Holy Communion.       Children ages 3 and above are welcome at the parents’ discretion, after meeting for instruction with the pastor. Children not instructed are invited to come forward for a blessing. If you are not able to come forward to take communion, please notify an usher before the service. Then try to sit by the aisle and the pastor will commune you in your pew.

4:00 pm-Active Grace Family Picnic @ Jester Park (Shelter 6)

Families are invited to come and enjoy the beauty of God’s Creation at Jester Park. Our shelter is near the Natural Playscape and the bison and elk. We will provide burgers, hot dogs, condiments and buns. You are invited to bring a side to share!

As a part of this family picnic we are issuing a no plastic challenge! You are challenged to find ways to transport food without plastic! Bring your own table service instead of disposable. Avoid single use plastics, and reuse bags and containers. This will be tricky but the hope is that it will raise your awareness of how much plastic we use and throw away. Please invite your friends and family to join us!

To help us plan for food, please RSVP with an expected number of participants from your family.
