Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me…”
Mark 9:37
This is such a beloved verse of scripture and emphasizes the inclusivity of children and youth in our church worship services and the  life of the church.

We hope to see all children, grandchildren, friends and family members joining us for Sunday service at 9 am as we honor the Church New Year and our love and care of children and youth.  As the Advent One Theme focuses on HOPE; Hope for a bright future which includes our youngest newest generations.
In God’s way of Hope,
Reverend Melissa and your Music Minister, Keith Belanger, and Vestry

Join us this Sunday for our festive choral Easter Eucharist.  Grace Church
choir will be singing two joyful Easter anthems accompanied by Deb Walz on
trumpet and our own Keith Belanger on the organ.

AED Training Completed
This past Tuesday, parishioners met in the parish hall to be trained on the use
of our new AED.  The training was conducted by the Red Cross and everyone
felt it was very complete.  We are now able to have at least one qualified
person on hand at every service in case of any emergency.  Don Henderson,
our junior warden, facilitated the purchase of the AED through a grant from
the NH Diocese.  He also worked with all the trainees to determine a mutual
date for the training.  Please thank all those who participated in this
worthwhile training and are making themselves available to help in times of an
emergency at the church.  Participants in the picture:  Becky K, Sharon B,
Adam, Steve, Joel, Don, Wendy, Scott, Kelly, Becky C, Bill, the instructor from
the Red Cross: Virginia Marchant, Tom.
