PARK DAY!!!
~
We will be at Veteran's Memorial Park every Thursday at 10:00a.m. Meet at the
play area closest to the Cove and across from the skate park. Some
of the older kids bring their bikes and/or skateboards and hang out
at the skate park. Moms and the younger crowd are on the
playground. For those of you who can stay longer, bring a sack
lunch. When we get a big enough group, we'd like to do some
organized sports! Teenagers are encouraged to join in!

This and That
~
*Servant
opportunities - there
are always any number of ways to serve the families of GRACE
through the GRACE fellowship - planning field trips, offering to
host a family meeting, sharing your area of expertise with
others...the list goes on!
Prayerfully consider where the Lord may be calling you to serve the
families of GRACE.
Please keep in mind - the GRACE homeschool fellowship as an
organization is intended as a
means to serve
others and
does not have any significance of its own.
Serve God, serve family, then serve others!
*Thank you all for having been so positive and supportive as this
GRACE homeschool fellowship has come into existence. Please
pray for God's continued wisdom and leading as we continue to grow
- more in Christ, than in numbers.
"Unless
the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in
vain."
Your questions, comments and suggestions are always welcome and
encouraged!
May God's glory be illuminated in your lives!
