L--Learn, We learn about God's love for the world.

A --Apply, We live out our faith at home and school.

S--Serve, We love God and our neighbor.

T--Tell, we share the good news of Jesus.

​

BLAST meets weekly on Wednesdays from 5:30 pm to 6:25 pm September through May, for ages 3 to grade 6.

Children come to learn about God and how to follow Jesus in their lives.

BLAST concludes at 6:25 pm so families can meet in the Chapel for 30 minutes of WOW time (Worship on Wednesday).

WOW is a family friendly service with three praise songs, brief message and communion. All are welcome!

ALLELUIA/CHERUB CHOIRS

As part of BLAST, our youth spend half their time learning about God's love through music. The Alleluia Choir (grades 2-6) meet at 5:30 in the Music Room, followed by our Cherub Choir (ages 3-grade 1).  Director Kris Tillotson (238-4418) would love to answer questions about these choirs, and she invites any child to come and check out the fun!​

​

CONFIRMATION 

Confirmation is for grades 7-9, with our 10th graders meet until they are confirmed on Reformation Sunday which is the last Sunday in October. Classes meet on Wednesday at 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm September through May in Fellowship Hall.  Youth will meet in small groups and have a mentor. Each week will be small group check-in, large group presentation and small group discussion.

​

BAPTISM

The celebration of entering God’s family is always a special occasion and is observed during a congregational worship service.  As Lutherans, most of our baptisms involve infants, but any age is the right age to receive God’s promise.  Arrangements for Holy Baptism are made with a pastor by contacting the church office for more information- office@gracelutheranchurch.org

​

FIRST COMMUNION

We believe that the decision about the age for a child to begin receiving communion is best made by each family.  To help make that decision, Grace offers a workshop in the winter with pastors. The typical age for this consideration is mid-to-late elementary grades, but participants have ranged from 5 to 15 years old.    We encourage you to speak with a pastor for further clarification regarding first communion.

​

VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL

Each summer there is one week of Vacation Bible Study for 4 years old to grade 6. There is a different theme every year for the program. This is another opportunity for children to learn about God and his love in a fun-filled way. Our next VBS is scheduled for June 17 to 21, 2024.

​

ADULT FAITH FORMATION

At Grace, we believe faith formation is life long as the Holy Spirit shapes us by God's word. Adults meet on Sunday mornings, September-May between services for a casual Bible study and conversation. Bring your coffee and head to the lounge for a variety of topics. Please see Pastor Allison for more information.
