Disciple-Making Grace Groups
In these groups designed to help us own our own growth with Christ and equip us to help others to grow.
Discipleship Essentials
Tuesdays 7:00 – 8:30pm,
Zoom & in-person
starting September 23, 2025
Grace Church is looking to invest deeply in those who want to grow as participants in God’s kingdom with the unique spiritual gifts and kingdom callings that Christ apportions those who belong to him. We will be using the disciple-making resources we use at Grace Church (i.e. NIV Study Bible, Discipleship Essentials, Spiritual Gifts Discovery, Our World Belongs to God Contemporary Testimony, Jesus Storybook Bible). Justin Rajballie and Tim Berends will mentor this interactive learning group. Once a month on Tuesdays, this online community of learning will meet in person at Grace Church over a shared international meal provided by participants. Contact the church office for the zoom link.
