this morning. Please fill out a Visitor Connect card, these are

you. Completed cards will be collected along with the offering
today.
Sunday School
All are welcome to attend Sunday School before worship
beginning at 8:45; classes are available for both children and
adults.
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 to the Lord’s Table. Please let the Pastor know that you
wish to receive this gift of life by holding out your open hands. If
you desire to drink the wine from the common cup, please
proceed to the left chalice after receiving the wafer. If you prefer to
dip the wafer into the wine, please proceed to the right chalice
after receiving the wafer. You are encouraged to bring young
children forward for a blessing. The sign for a blessing is folded

Grace Notes
ALTAR FLOWERS
● Sign-up sheets are posted on the bulletin board in the Fellowship Hall; you’re invited to select a Sunday to donate the flowers of your choosing for the beautification of our worship service at Grace. You may indicate the dedication for inclusion in that Sunday’s bulletin beside your name. Thank you!
ONGOING BOOK STUDY
● Grace’s ongoing book study continues this Tuesday evening, January 25, at 6:30 PM. This week’s discussion will be based on chapter 3 of James K. A. Smith’s book You Are What You Love. All are invited and welcome to attend. This study will continue each week through the month of February. Lent begins with Ash Wednesday on March 2, and the return of midweek worship, at that time. See you on Tuesday!
INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY
● In the event of inclement weather, Pastor Knuppel will still plan to be present and open the church for anyone who can attend. This will remain our policy moving forward. In no way does this mean that any should feel compelled to drive in conditions that they deem unsafe. We trust that all will make the decision that is in the best interest and safety for themselves. As always, Pastor will post the sermon online so you may hear the Word.
