Pumpkin Patch is Coming
No 2020 Grace Yard SaleThe committee tried putting off the decision as long as it could, but unfortunately, the 2020 Grace Yard sale will not be taking place. With all the people it takes to put on the event, as well as bringing so many people into the building, it has been deemed too much of a risk. We realize that many in the local community depend on some of the great deals in the yard sale. So the local missions committee has put a list of places together for you to donate the items you would typically donate to Grace. We hope that by doing this, we, as a church, will still be able to help the local community.
