Grace Bulletin Board
BookSale
Booksale and bakesale: The annual Faith and Life Booksale will take place on Friday and Saturday, December 4 & 5, 6:30 - 8:30 p.m. on Friday and 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. on Saturday. Each year a percent of the total sales is donated by Faith and Life to purchase books. This year's book donation will go to the Bluffton Public Library. The MYF will have a bakesale during the booksale on Friday evening and on Saturday, if there are still items to sell. If you would like to donate good for the sale, please put them in the church kitchen Friday morning or afternoon. Help make these sales a success by spreading the word to others in the community.

Marriage Mentoring
All couples face a variety of joys and challenges in their married lives. As a congregation, we value strong marriages and families--but we also recognize that developing and maintaining vibrant marriages doesn't happen automatically. One possibility is for couples at an earlier stage of their marriage to be linked with a more seasoned couple in an informal mentoring relationship of encouragement and support. If you have interest in being a part of such an arrangement, please contact a member of the Shepherding Team. It's fine if you have a suggestion of a possible mentoring couple, or we'd be glad to discuss ideas.
