Coming Up at at Grace Lutheran Church in Westminster Maryland 7/9/2020

Worship this Weekend July 12 God’s word is like the rain that waters the earth and brings forth vegetation. It is also like the sower who scatters seed indiscriminately. Our lives are like seeds sown in the earth. Even from what appears to be little, dormant, or dead, God promises a harvest. At the Lord’s table we are fed with the bread of life, that we may bear fruit in the world. Grace’s worship service will be posted online beginning at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday.  We begin including the celebration of Holy Communion at Home this weekend. (Please see the link below for information about joining in Holy Communion.) You can tune in through Facebook or on YouTube channel – gracelc21.  Holy Communion Preparation, Celebration, and Clean up Click here for the letter explaining the rationale for adding Holy Communion to our on line worship services. You also will find the pastors’ instructions for how to prepare the elements, celebrate the sacrament, and clean up properly after the worship service. Little Friends of Grace Needs Your Help Little Friends of Grace is planning to reopen in the fall utilizing all of the CDC and Department of Education Guidelines. Among the measures required for a safer learning environment, each child must have a box with his/her individual supplies. We expect 80 to 90 students this fall. We could use your help in collecting these supplies. If you can contribute anything from the list below, please drop your item(s) off at the church office or the box outside the LFOG door at the back of the church during church and preschool office hours which are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 8:30 – 3:30 p.m.  The items needed are: 90 - 16 count Crayola crayons 90 - Elmer's school Glue Sticks  90 - blunt tip scissors 90 - large, round Children's paint brushes  Volunteers Needed For In Person Worship We are working toward the return to in person worship services beginning on August 8 & 9. This return depends upon (1) a continued low rate of virus spread in our county and (2) the availability of volunteers. If you plan to return to in person worship, please consider volunteering in order to make the services possible. Please click here to sign up to help.   Confirmation Projects Our Second Year Confirmation Students created projects to express their faith. They were shared with parents, teachers and mentors via a zoom meeting. Over the coming weeks, we will be sharing pictures of the projects with you. We think the students did a great job and hope that you agree. The project displayed at the top of this email is a picture of Camryn Cruz showing her drawing of the Earth in God’s hands surrounded by flowers that represent new life.  TECT Paying It Forward Do you have a job around your house or yard for which you need some help? Middle and High School Youth from Grace and Trinity are willing to help. In thanksgiving for the ways in which our congregations have supported youth on their summer mission trips, our young people want to say “thanks” by paying it forward! While there is no guarantee they will be able to do your job, it is worth asking!! Use this link for the form you can fill out to request their services.   Understanding Spiritual Gifts A six week Bible Study There is still time to join in an inspiring Bible Study that will help you look at your own life in Christ. The class will be offered on Sundays at 10:00 a.m. and Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. You can move back and forth between the classes as your schedule requires.  Books are still available for pick up at the church office. If you prefer a digital copy, you can find it on Amazon. Look for “Understanding Spiritual Gifts” by Kay Arthur, David & BJ Lawson.  If you plan to participate, please email Pastor Martha at mclementson@gracelc.org so that we can send you the zoom link.  God's work.
