V.B.S. & Church Picnic Report

We are giving thanks to our Lord for a very busy and successful week of V.B.S. About 50 kids and adults were involved, and our emphasis was on God's Word. We are grateful to Lynn Bolton as Director, and for a great staff to support her. The picnic on Sunday was well attended, and greatly appreciated by all. Please pray that lessons learned will help us all to grow in Him. Let's go!

Welcome Visitors!

At Grace Bible Church, Bible is our middle name. Many people are not sure what a Bible Church is, but it is simply a group of people who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior from sin. We join together to read and study His Word, the Bible, and to honor Him with our songs, our service and our giving. We focus on doing what the Bible tells us to do.

Our congregation is always looking for more men and women, boys and girls, to join us. If you are looking for a church where are are perfect, and no one ever makes a mistake, this is not the church. However, if you are looking for a church home, where the pe0ple are not only moral, but kind, where the Bible is deeply appreciated for who it helps us to become, where we attempt to serve Jesus Christ, our Savior, as Lord, and where you would be welcomed, please give us consideration.

We are pleased you are here today, and pray God's very best for you and your family. Enjoy yourself!
