Thank you, Grace, for your participation in Sunday night’s family meeting. There were informative reviews on the ministry last year and important decisions were made as we move ahead in 2024.
Please welcome Adam King as Assistant Pastor of Education. Adam’s function is as a part-time pastoral intern and his role will be funded from the general fund instead of the Ministry Expansion Fund. You can review his job description here.
As we have reactivated the function of elders at Grace, we are pleased to introduce Dwight Ball and Ernie Hodges as elders – godly men who have served faithfully for a long time. They will be meeting regularly with the pastors to “tend the flock” and serve in a shepherding role, primarily through the care groups, so everyone at Grace effectively feels shepherded – including those who are not participating in a care group. Clarity on specific designations will be coming to light in the next couple of weeks.
Adam Landreth is our newest deacon at Grace. Please welcome him and support him in prayer along with his wife, Ellen, who is now serving as our Director of C.E. You can view the GBC organizational chart here.

We appreciate your forbearance on the expansion discussion. The board chose not to employ the services of J.H. Batten and the church has approved the reallocation of the $25,000 toward professional services in pursuit of the pre-construction project. Wayne Roberts is a dear brother and a certified architect and will help us in the pursuit of completing the project so we can fulfill necessary protocols and get all the information you’re looking for with regard to expanding our facilities.
I look forward to all that the Lord has in store for us as we look ahead and follow His Spirit’s lead. In all of this, remember your calling: Jesus said “Follow Me.”
