UPCOMING EVENTS
in December 2025/January 2026
IT’S ADVENT--and EVERY SUNDAY this month is a SUPER CELEBRATION of the CHRIST CHILD WHO WAS BORN IN A MANGER, sent by the Father to save us from our sins! And there are many special events throughout the weeks as well. Please note the following and plan to join in whenever you can. More details forthcoming.

On Saturday, December 6 (in the afternoon), Warren and Carol Sheaffer will be leading an OUTREACH to the residents at The Garden at Stevens nursing home. If you would like to join them (to sing and to interact with the residents), call or text Carol at 717-644-4624.

A SHOW OF HANDS, PLEASE.
Who would be interested (and able) to participate in a CHRISTMAS CAROL evening in East Pete neighborhoods on Saturday, December 13, from 6pm to 7:30pm? With hot chocolate and cookies afterwards.
Please respond here. Thanks!

On Sunday, December 14, Grace Church and Living Christ Church will be sharing a meal together directly after the Grace worship service. LCC is supplying the entrees; Grace will be providing sides, desserts, and drinks. A sign-up sheet will be available Sunday at church.
…………………………………….
COME ONE, COME ALL to the AMMERMAN’s CHRISTMAS OPEN HOUSE on Sunday, December 21: after church and until 5pm. We’ll have a warm and wonderful time of feasting and fellowship together. EVERYONE IS WELCOME!

The Grace Church CHRISTMAS EVE Candlelight Service will be held on Wednesday, December 4, 7pm to 8:15pm. We’ll raise our voices in the wonderful hymns of Christmas; hear a handful of short inspiring messages from Devin Miller, Jet Rivera, David Hundert, Micah Ammerman, and Mark Ammerman; and light our candles to the joyous singing of Silent Night. Invite family and friends to join you in this worshipful prelude to Christmas.
…………………………………….
In the NEW YEAR, on Saturday, January 4, 2026, the Grace Family will gather for a day of worship and testimony, praise and guided prayer, and a dinner together as we LAUNCH another year of life and ministry in East Petersburg. PLEASE MARK THIS ON YOUR CALENDAR and MAKE THIS DAY A TOP PRIORITY as we GATHER TO BRING IN THE NEW YEAR WITH SONG AND PRAYER.
This is an all-church event which I hope will bring us all together for an envisioning day of worship and intercession for our church and community.
