From the Pastor – May 4, 2018

Dear Friends,

We extend our Christian Sympathy to the family and friends of Dorothy Craver who died on May 1 at Rydal Park.  Dorothy, a faithful member of Grace Baptist since 1948, was 102 years old.  There will be a memorial service on Saturday, May 12, 11:00 A.M. at the church.  Expressions of sympathy to the family can be sent to Dorothy’s daughter, Joan Hall, at 728 Norristown Road, Apt. G-108, Lower Gwynedd, PA 19002.

This Sunday I’ll continue my series of messages, “Bearing Fruit”, with a sermon about “Kindness,” based on Galatians 5:22-23.  We will also be celebrating the Lord’s Supper together.  Special music will be provided by Gene Stremme and Barbara Green in a piano duet.

Following the worship service there is a special congregational meeting for members of Grace Baptist to approve the proposed Pastoral Search Committee members listed below.  Thank you to these members for their willingness to serve on this committee.  Please remain in the sanctuary following worship for this brief meeting.

Harold Mathues (Trustees)        Cliff Dobrovolec (Diaconate)

Gene Stremme (Missions)         Deb Sharpe (Christian Education)

Oneida Ortiz                              Casey Brookes
