CURRENT SERIES: MAKING ROOM FOR JESUS
This Christmas season, Grace Fellowship invites you to discover the life-changing peace and joy that comes from welcoming Jesus into your life. In our 4-week sermon series, Making Room for Jesus, we’ll explore the story of Christ’s birth and learn how to prepare our hearts for the Savior. Through practical insights and biblical truths, this series will help you clear the distractions, embrace God’s presence, and experience the true meaning of Christmas. Whether you’re searching for hope, joy, or a deeper connection with God, this series is for you.
Week 1: Clearing the Clutter – Recognize what’s crowding Jesus out of your life and make space for Him.
Week 2: Welcoming the Unexpected – Discover how Jesus shows up in surprising ways and how to trust His timing.
Week 3: Preparing the Way – Learn how to align your heart with God’s plan and welcome His presence.
Week 4: Sharing the Joy – Be inspired to spread the hope and love of Christ to those around you.
Join us at Grace Fellowship as we celebrate the true gift of Christmas and make room for Jesus together.

KID NEWS
CURRENT SERIES
WAITING FOR THE KING // 0 - 5TH GRADE // 9 & 10:30 AM // ENTER DOOR 7
Waiting can be hard, especially when you are waiting for something good. For hundreds of years, God’s people waited for Jesus to come. He is the One who God promised, the One coming to make all things right. He is the good and perfect King who will rule forever. There is no one like Him, and His arrival signaled hope and salvation for all who felt the weight of sin and brokenness upon this world. As the everlasting King and Prince of Peace, He is worthy of all worship. In this series, God invites us to meet and worship our true King.
