Bringing You the Latest Buzz from Grace Fellowship
_____________________________________________________________________________
Pastor's Pen
Here’s a thought worth chewing on! The values of the heart attract the fuel needed to sustain those values. For example, people who love to gossip always attract and quickly find others who also gossip. It’s truly fascinating how people with certain values, whether good or bad, tend to attract others with the same values.
Of course, not everything that comes your way is something you attracted. Nevertheless, we must exercise care, as bitterness attracts bitterness and fear attracts fear. The good news is that extraordinary hope attracts hope, and great faith attracts great faith.
An important prayer to pray is: “Lord, help me to attract into my life what pleases You. Protect my heart from seeds that are destructive to my walk with You. Seeds of resentment, bitterness, and fear have no place in my life. I choose to value encouragement, hope, and faith! May I not only pass on these values, but may I also attract them back into my life.”
I’m so excited to share the Word with you this weekend! One of the greatest joys of my life is sharing the Word with the people of GF, who have a deep desire to grow in their walk with the Lord.

Campus Update
Remembering God's Blessing,
Just two years ago, in December 2022, Grace was blessed with an incredible opportunity: a $400,000 matching grant. The challenge was clear—if Grace could raise $400,000 within the month, a generous foundation would match the amount, turning it into $800,000 by December 31, 2022. When the dust settled, God worked through the generosity of Grace's supporters to raise an astonishing $413,000 in just 30 days, bringing the total to $813,000. What God has done before, He can do again!
To date $3.34 million has been raised. We are over halfway toward what is needed. God can do this through us and for us, ONE MIRACLE AT A TIME.
