Christian 4th of July Prayer
Heavenly Father,
On this day of celebration, we lift our hearts in gratitude for the gift of freedom You have blessed our nation with. Thank You for the courage of those who came before us, for the sacrifices made to protect liberty, and for the opportunities we enjoy today.
Lord, guide our leaders with wisdom, integrity, and compassion. Help us, as Your people, to walk in humility, to seek justice, and to love mercy. May our freedom never be used for selfish gain, but to serve others and honor You.
Bless our communities with unity, peace, and understanding. Protect those who serve in our military, law enforcement, and public service. And may Your light shine brightly across this land, drawing hearts back to You.
In Jesus’ name we pray,
AMEN.

~~WHAT'S HAPPENING AT GRACE~~
Grace Sunday School Classes
Grace’s Sunday School Classes start at 9:45 am and are led by members of Grace who give of their time and talents to teach us about the word of God. The children's class gets a treat and drink while learning a valuable lesson from Karen Hibbard. Larry Goff, and Jan Thompson focus on teaching all aspects of being a Christian in the Adult Class. We have a Fellowship Class for young adults led by Fran Love and Brad Valentine in the Conference Room. We hope you will join us in one of these meaningful classes.

- Adult Class: Clyburn-Whitener classroom in the Education Building to the left of the exit to the breezeway.
- Young Adult Class: 10:00 AM Conference Room to the right after coming in the parking lot side door to the Educational Building.
ROCKERS FOR CHRIST BRUNCH
Rockers for Christ will return in September.
FOOD BOXES DISTRIBUTION
On Tuesday, July 14, the food box distribution will be from 1:00 - 2:30 pm. Volunteers are always appreciated, so if you have a spare hour or so during that time, please consider helping.
METHODIST MEN’S BREAKFAST
This group is for men of the church, of any age. Plans are being made for special projects, and the food and fellowship are a wonderful plus. The cooks are pretty good, too! So, make your plans now to attend. The next breakfast will be announced soon.
FAMILY NIGHT SUPPERS
Family Night Suppers are on the fourth Wednesday of each month.
Everyone brings a covered dish to share. The next supper will be in August 2026 in the Fellowship Hall. The three Fs are always present: Food, Fun, and Fellowship. This is a great time to socialize with other Grace members, and for those who would like to get to know the Grace Family. We hope to see you there in August!
GRACE NEIGHBORHOOD SUPPER
Each month on the fourth Thursday, we serve a meal to our community in need.
The next neighborhood supper will take place in August. Volunteers to help before, during, and after are greatly appreciated, as are the donations of food items. Please look for the sign-up sheets at both entrances to the sanctuary and in the Sunday School classrooms beginning in August.
LUCY LEE SHULER CIRCLE
The circle will meet on August 11, 2026, at 6:00 pm, in the Fellowship Hall. Remember to bring items for the Nursing Homes for their Bingo parties. Bring a covered dish to share for supper. Donna Long and Susan Cunningham lead this group of ladies as they continue to study the book "Captivated". Anyone is welcome to join this circle.
JOHNNIE SANDERS/CIRCLE OF HOPE CIRCLE
This circle meets on the first Monday of every month at 10:30 am in the Conference Room. They actively participate in various charitable and community activities. If mornings work for you, why not give this circle a try. The circle is led by Judy Caston and Sonja Dunbar. They will meet beginning in September after a summer break.
CHANCEL CHOIR
Tommy Bishop is our organist, pianist, and choir director. He has given the Chancel Choir both July and August off from weekly Wednesday evening rehearsals. The choir will resume practicing in September. During these two months, Tommy is lining up special musicians to perform during the Worship Service. These musicians will prove to be worth your coming to listen to. Anyone interested in joining the choir this Fall need only to let Tommy know or show up at practice. There is always room for more voices!
