GATHERING AT GRACE  :  What opportunities for fun are available at Grace? Where do I belong? 
Our (sort of) age related gatherings are for anyone who wants to come and have fun with others. No ID checked! If you want to hang out with folks, no one will turn you away.

• GRACE FAMILY FIRST NIGHTS - We meet on the first Sunday of each month for food and fellowship. Following our meal, one of our awesome musical groups will sing and we usually end the night with a mission project to support one of the many groups we serve.  Kim Palmer coordinates this group.
• -ISH GROUP  :  -Ish is one of our interest/affinity groups at Grace and anyone can join! We call ourselves ISH because all of our group descriptions are open in interpretation. 😊 We are young(ish) and many would describe their stage of life as chaotic with lots of competing schedules and commitments. Some of us are married, some are not. Some have kids, some do not. We like to meet for lunch after church the 3rd Sunday of each month (“Lunch & Hang) and usually help coordinate things like celebrating a wedding or baby showers, things like that.  We are always looking to meet new folks and are open to expanding the types of events we do based on the interest of the group. We are always evolving, just like Grace! If you are interested in helping host/planning an event or want to get involved, reach out to Dre Manoni. We have a Facebook group where we try to keep things updated(ish) when we are doing stuff. You can request to join the group by searching “The -Ish@Grace” on FB.  Dre Manoni coordinates this group. 
• GAP GROUP - We don’t need babysitters (or we do and get them) and can still drive at night. We gather the 3rd Friday night of each month for food and shenanigans. Sometimes we’re at the home of a member, sometimes we can be found at a local pub or restaurant, but we can always be found laughing and having fun. (What’s in the name? It was the group in the gap between our young adults and seniors…that’s not really true anymore, but the name stuck.) Ray Scott is our coordinator.
• DAYTRIPPERS - We go on field trips during the day. From spider lilies to Hello Dolly to Fort Mill History Museum and more. Watch for the monthly adventure. Annmarie Clark coordinates this group. All are welcome!
• VINTAGE GRACE - This group of Seniors gathers annually for a Christmas lunch and gift swap.
• YOUTH - 6th through 12th graders gather weekly for faith-building, service and fun. More details here.

ASSISTIVE LISTENING - DEVICES AND APP
If you have trouble hearing the message and other speaking in the sanctuary, please let the people in the sound booth know. We have three assistive listening devices. It is recommended that you bring your own headphones that can be plugged into the device.
We now have an app available that streams the service. Please check the website for details on how to download and use it.

PARKING ON SUNDAYS AT GRACE
On Sunday mornings, please reserve all of the parking spots in the circle for those with limited mobility unless you hold the monthly Space of Grace.

NAMETAGS
Please remember to wear your nametags on Sunday mornings. We have had quite a few guests attending worship, so it's helpful if we are wearing our nametags. If you are missing your name tag, let Ami know.

SOFT PLASTIC RECYCLING
Great job on continuing your collections! We have received several benches with half going to the Historic Paradise Foundation. Have you ever wondered where the plastic goes after we collect it? The following 2 videos will provide those  answers:

HUG ME DOLLS
Do you know someone who needs a hug? Melissa has been making some hug-me dolls and is ready to make some more. They come in a wide variety, with each one just waiting to be hugged. They are $10 with all proceeds going to Thornwell Home for Children and Teenagers.
