This Week at Grace, November 16, 2020
Pastor Tim
Hey, Grace’rs,

You may have heard that we canceled our in-house worship this past weekend because one of our behind-the-scenes tech people contracted COVID on Wednesday.

We decided, even though we could have gone ahead with the services with no risk to the congregation, that we would err on the side of safety. It gave us the change as well to take a look at the COVID numbers here in Phoenix as they continue to rise. We will let you know by Thursday if we will offer in-house worship this weekend.
Coming Up:

Because of COVID our Annual meeting will be on Zoom. Because of this we will be limiting attendees to members only due to voting procedures and protocols. 

The meeting will be Sunday, December 6@10:30 am. If you are a member and want to be a part of the meeting click this link: https://commgrace.shelbynextchms.com/external/form/7daa6c73-078a-403b-a05c-03435166f77d

Two items on the agenda: Approving the 2021 Annual Budget and approving the 2021 Board of Directors.

The budget will be online soon so that members and guests alike can take a look at it.

An advance look at Christmas:

Our Advent theme this year: Joy Comes to the World. Each weekend we will read a Nativity Story from a different country. 

On Thursday, December 17 we’ll do a Live Sing-A-Long with Santa and friends.

On the weekend of December 12-13 Our New Gen Choir will be hosting an outdoor, socially-distanced, retelling of the Nativity Story. More details to come.

We will be recording a shortened version of our Annual Christmas Show and will debut it on Sunday, December 20 on Facebook and Youtube.

Christmas Eve Services: More to come!
