Just a note that Ladies’ Game Day for March is cancelled. We look forward to gathering in April – more details to come or see Patty Williams for questions.
Patty invites the ladies of Grace to gather for an afternoon of fun! Plan to set aside the afternoon from 1:30-4pm to gather at Patty’s house. Beverages will be provided; please bring a finger food to share.
Hey Teens!
On March 8, we will hold our monthly gathering for teens before the service, starting at 10:00. I’m hoping this can be a low-key space for us to grow a bit together, ask some questions, and dig a little into what it is that we believe.
Oh… and I’ll bring donuts.
So if you are 13-18, and are willing to get up a little earlier, I’d love to spend some time with you all on the 8th.
Blessings, Evin
Please mark your calendars for our Annual Congregational Meeting scheduled for Sunday, Feb 22, following a Finger Food Potluck immediately after the morning service. We encourage members and regular attenders to join us as we hear from some key ministry team leaders and are reminded of what the Lord has done this past year and look ahead to 2026.
We will once again be having a spread of finger food potluck items after service to tide us all over through the meeting, so if you are able, please bring a "hearty snack" to share.
Annual Reports will be emailed out Monday, February 2 – please see Carmen if you need a physical copy.
The next Family Promise week will be January 1-8, 2026. Family Promise prevents and ends homelessness for families with children and helps them achieve sustainable independence.

There are many ways to participate – click the link above to sign up or see Greg if you have questions.
Deadline to return bottles is February 22 - please return to our deacons.
The deacons have approved a request from Skagit Valley Pregnancy Care Center to present a fundraiser that will run from January 25, (Sanctity of Human Life Sunday) through February 22. If you would like to participate, please take home a baby bottle (provided by SVPCC) to fill with change, cash or check; these will be available on January 25 for those who wish to take one. The deacons will combine all the gifts that are turned in and will deliver them to SVPCC. Please make checks payable to SVPCC. If you have any questions about this or desire more information, please contact Paul Westra.
There will be a brief but important congregational meeting and vote on Jan 11, 2026 immediately following the morning service. The Session is very pleased to announce that Jeff Silzer has been approved for and accepted the call for the office of Elder at Grace and so is being put forth for a vote by all communicant members. We encourage all to join us as we take care of this important item within our church family.

This Good Friday we will have a service of lament through scripture and prayer. We will read scripture and pray together a litany of lament, and repentance.
After service on September 8, we will converge on Anne’s amazing flower fields! Plan to bring a chair for everyone in your family group, any lawn games you have to play, and your delicious dish to share. The location: Anne's Flower Fields, 20555 Dry Slough Road, Mount Vernon WA. Things to know: there is not a power source on-site, so please keep that in mind when planning your dish. There IS running water (via a hose), as well as a Port-a-Potty with a handwashing station.
Ladies are welcome to gather via Zoom for a time of fellowship and prayer. Contact Sheryl or Cherry for the Zoom link. The formal study will resume mid-September.
The Session and Diaconate of Grace are calling for nominations for the offices of Elder and Deacon. We are setting a deadline for this round of nominations of Sunday May 19th. After that the Session will approach nominees and determine their willingness to serve. You can make nominations either online here, or by filling out a nomination form on Sunday and depositing it in the black offering box.
You are invited to join us as we joyously observe the installation of Evin Langley as our Senior Pastor. Please plan to stay after the service for an extended time of fellowship over coffee and refreshments as the celebration continues.
Please mark your calendars for Sunday, July 9, as a congregation vote will be held immediately following the service on whether to call Evin Langley to pastorship at Grace. Given the high attendance flux in the summer months, we are giving several weeks’ notice, and we highly encourage all members and regular attenders to join us for this important vote as we move towards the next season in the life of Grace as a church.
