Fellowship
The fellowship ministry at Grace is coordinated by a consortium of guilds and commissions that work together
throughout the year to provide opportunities for us to gather and deepen the bonds of friendship among the families
of Grace. In a typical year, this includes at least twenty special events, as well as coffee hours after every Sunday service.
Funeral Receptions
This group of Grace parishioners strives to make this time as easy as possible for the grieving family by
lightening the burden of hospitality. Contact: Glory Meyer
Coffee Hours
Every Sunday, Grace offers a menu of snacks, coffees and other beverages for our parishioners and guests. This group
coordinates volunteers to host coffee hours to ensure that out tables are plentiful and our time is full of fellowship.
Sign up quarterly on the Fellowship Hall bulletin board.
Events
The Fellowship Events Team, along with the guilds, organizes many events throughout the year such as the Feast of
Lights Service and Dinner, Wednesdays in Lent Soup Suppers, Seder Dinner, Easter Egg Hunt, Ladies Tea, Volunteer
Recognition Picnic, Movies Under the Stars, Wednesday Morning Park Play Dates for our children, our Fall Picnic and
the St. Francis Day Pet Blessing -- to name just a few. Contact: Vivian TerMaat
Guilds
There are seven guilds currently active at Grace with fellowship and service opportunities for the young and old, men and women.
As examples, All Saint's Guild runs estate sales to provide discretionary funds to the Rector and Deacon, St. Mary's Guild is
primarily for women in their 20s, 30s, and 40s and focuses on family issues, St. Monica's Guild was created for the "Sandwich
Generation" women of Grace, and all male members of the congregation are invited to become members of the service guild known as
Men of Grace. Contact: Candy Titus
