Gifts given to share

Rev. Jackie Nehls’ sermon from 14 Oct, entitled “Gifts given to share” http://www.graceucclancaster.org/sermons/2012-10-14-nehls.mp3

Sermon podcasts are here

I’ve added a new feature to the website.  We now have sermon podcasts.  We probably won’t be posting every sermon (for both personnel and technical reasons), but my hope is that the will be able to post on a fairly regular basis.  I’ll post links here to the individual sermons as they get posted, but you can also subscribe here or see browse them all here.

And so, the transition begins

For a variety of reasons, this blog has been neglected for the last year.  It was started during a period of transition and, as we begin another period of transition, I guess it is appropriate that this blog and the website will be getting some renewed attention to go along with our Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/GraceChurchLancaster).  Coming attractions will (hopefully) include, regular postings by our interim pastor, sermon audio, upcoming events and mission projects, and, on the website, the monthly newsletters. …

The Church website is back

After an absence that stretched on longer than we originally planned, the church has its website back online at www.graceucclancaster.org.  Eventually, we hope to link this blog up with the website, too, but in the meantime, click over and check it out.

Children’s Sunday School

Kids age 2 through 12th grade are welcome to join us for Sunday School March 7, 14 and 21. From 9:30-10:15 am, we’ll be learning about some of the really upside down things Jesus taught. For instance, “happy are you when people spread lies about you” or “if you want to be great, you have to be the servant of all.” Why did Jesus say such strange, upside down things? Come find out! All kids are welcome!
