Operation Inasmuch is Ten Days Away!

September 7th is approaching fast. This is the day when the people of Grace are getting out into our communities to serve others as part of Operation Inasmuch.

We've had a great response so far with 120 Grace members volunteering to be involved.

There are still some projects that need volunteers to make them happen. We need: 

• One more person to help paint a basement wall for a senior citizen
  
• Four people to help with yard work at another senior's home
  
• People to plant trees and bushes at the Forest Beach Migratory Preserve
  
• Three or four people to look after young children of our volunteers in the church nursery that afternoon
  
• Some more people to sing and play games with the residents of a group home in Port Washington
  
  

There are activities for all ages.  Families can work together.  The sign-up sheets for the different activities are located in the gathering area at church.  You can also call the church office (377-4770) and let us know where you want to help.

In addition we also need . . . (you can do these even if you're not here on September 7th): 

• More volunteers to bake cookies and bring them to feed our volunteers at their meal
  
• Cookies and baked goods to be brought to church and decorated to take to our local first responders
• Hoses, buckets, sponges, soap and lots and lots of towels for our free car wash at Grafton Elementary School

Sign up or call the church office (377-4770) to help with these things.

10:00 a.m. - Sunday morning worship service for all Grace members
