TODAY is the last day of school. Unlike previous years, students do not return on Friday morning for a closing chapel service. Our closing chapel service is TODAY at 2:00pm. All parents are invited to attend. After the service, students will return to their classrooms to pick up all materials going home and will be dismissed with their class at 3:00.
Thank you for a great school year! God’s Blessings to our Graduates and all others leaving for a different school. We will miss you.

Join us for GLOW— informal, outdoor summer worship on Wednesday evenings at Grace
|
Beginning June 12 and throughout the summer, we will gather each Wednesday evening for GLOW — Grace Lutheran On Wednesday. It's a new opportunity for fellowship and worship.
Join us as we gather outside the Bonnie Brae doors at 6:30pm for ice cream sundaes. Cross+Gen worship begins on the front lawn at 7pm with FAITH5, songs of praise, scripture, and a message. Bring chairs or blankets to sit on, if you like. We will conclude each week by 7:30pm. (In case of inclement weather, we will gather inside the atrium.)
GLOW is all about comfort--come as you are! GLOW is also all about Jesus--who calls us to shine our light. Bring your whole family, come on your own, or invite your next door neighbor! And if you're running late, come whenever you can get here--there will be plenty of ice cream and plenty of music, prayer, and fellowship. See you on June 12!
