This Sunday is the Fourteenth Sunday after Pentecost
September 2, 2012
This Sunday, while the Pharisees are complaining about the disciples eating with unclean hands, Jesus turns their attention to those who live lives with unclean hearts.
This Sunday is the first in the month, so the birthday prayer will be offered at both services. During the 10:30 service, we will also have the Blessing of the Backpacks which will be given to HAWC and a prayer for all students returning to school.

Alex's Lemonade Stand at Grace Church
On Saturday September 1 through Monday, September 3, the O'Connell Family will be hosting "Alex's Lemonade Stand" from 12 noon to 4:00 pm each day at Grace Church. Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation (ALSF) emerged from the front yard lemonade stand of cancer patient Alexandra "Alex" Scott (1996-2004). In 2000, 4-year-old Alex announced that she wanted to hold a lemonade stand to raise money to help find a cure for all children with cancer. Since Alex held that first stand, the Foundation bearing her name has evolved into a national fundraising movement, complete with thousands of supporters across the country carrying on her legacy of hope. John, Megan, John and Ellie O'Connell invite you to stop by for some lemonade, which will support cancer research. They also invite anyone who wishes to join them working at the stand to come on by.
