Above: Mountains surrounding Park City Below: Bella teaching one of our sessions
All of our fall programs have been going great! We started youth group and discovery club. As you can see below, John is having so much fun with our kids. :)
We are also happy to report that we are at about 80% of our monthly needs! John is putting in his 2 week notice tomorrow at Kraft and we are so thankful! Its been a great job for John- but it will be so awesome for him to finally be full time at Grace. It has been very difficult trying to balance a full time secular job AND being a pastor, youth pastor, kids club leader, and more! He can't wait to be able to dedicate himself fully to teaching and shepherding our church body. Praise God!!Please be in prayer for the following things:
Installation /Anniversary Sunday- Oct 30th.
Pastor Derrick will be coming back to do a special service for us in celebrating 14 years as a church and installing John into the church as Pastor. We will also have a Tentmakers rep there (Tim Miles, of course!) who will be speaking as well. We are very excited and know that we will have a lot of people at church that day. Please pray for the Smothers and Miles families as they travel this weekend.
Baby Avery
We are about 2 1/2 weeks away from Baby Avery's arrival. Please be in prayer for her continued health and safe delivery. We are also having family travel up for that, so please be in prayer for them as well. Also- thanks for your prayers for Taylor- she transitioned to a big girl bed beautifully. I know this probably doesn't seem like that big of a deal- but I was SOO stressed about it. :) Thanks for praying.
Sunday School
Grace Bible Church will begin having Sunday school classes the first week of November! We are so excited! Please be in prayer for more helpers and for people to be excited about having an extra hour to learn about and worship God. We have had a great response so far. John will be teaching Adult Sunday school. We also have some kids classes going on as well. Please pray for all the teachers and helpers for wisdom from God while they prepare and teach their lessons. John will be going through Doctrine- so it will be a great series for new Christians especially.
Thanks for reading and for your prayers and support!
