Grace Lutheran Church welcomes you to worship this morning.
Please fill out a visitor card, found in your welcome bag or available
from an usher, and place it in the offering plate.
If you have questions or are interested in hearing about
membership, please see Pastor Ryman or contact him using the
information on the front of this bulletin.
Holy Communion
Those who are baptized and believe that Jesus
Christ, crucified and risen, is truly present in, with, and under the
forms of bread and wine for the forgiveness of sins, life, and
salvation, are welcome at the Lord’s Table. Please let the pastor know
you wish to receive this gift of life by holding your open hands
toward the cup.
We encourage that young children be brought forward for a
blessing. The sign for a blessing is folded hands.
Sunday School Classes
• Everyone is invited to fellowship with coffee, juice, and doughnuts
before classes in the kitchen area.
