We are proud of our 2020 High School Graduates! Congrats Anna, Madelynn, and William! Although we cannot yet celebrate their accomplishment during in-person worship we want to send our blessings with a card shower. Please take a few moments to send each of our 2020 grads a card of congratulations.

Grace Office Hours Return
In last week's e-grace, we shared that in-person worship will continue online. Ministry teams and committees are also permitted to meet at church in groups less than 10. Please call the church office (218-568-5755) to reserve meeting space ahead of time. In addition, the Grace office has returned to the normal office hours of Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. to noon. To protect the church community and staff, we ask that those who visit refrain from entering Ann Hutchings office unless necessary. Consider chatting from the doorway and/or wearing a mask.
Farewell to the Likers
Pastor Gary's last Sunday with Grace is Sunday, June 14. Even though we won't be able to worship in-person with everyone yet, we will still come together as a church community to recognize them. The Staff Parish Relations Committee is inviting you to participate in a card shower. Please mail your cards to Grace UMC, P.O. Box 276, Pequot Lakes MN 56472.  Please write "PASTOR FAREWELL" on the outside of the envelope. This will be a flag to Ann Hutchings to hold these for their final worship service. If you want to include a monetary gift, make your check payable to Gary and Brenda Liker. In addition, we are looking at options for people to say good-bye in person, in a safe setting. Stay tuned for more information.
Operation Sandwich Donations
Operation Sandwich offers a simple bag lunch to community children four times a week: Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. There are no income requirements, no collecting of names, and the lunches are free to the community. This summer, Operation Sandwich is expanding north to the greater Pequot Lakes area. Grace has volunteered to be a location to collect donations. Please consider donating items from the needs list . There is a black tote in the fellowship for donations. More information about food distribution and volunteering for sandwich making will be coming in the following weeks. Contact Andrea Langhoff with any questions.
