Satellite All Church Retreat: August 30

It’s time for the Grace All Church Retreat! In 2019 over 50 of us gathered at a camp near Arkansas City for a weekend retreat. This year that is not possible, so instead of a retreat at one location, we’re having a retreat at many locations. We call it the Satellite All Church Retreat.

Members of our congregation welcome small groups to their backyards for a scaled-down retreat on Sunday, August 30 from 9-11 am. Each retreat location has a leader ...

Grace Updates: May 23

Dear Grace Community,

We are almost to the end of ...
