Grace provides lodging, meals and caring hospitality to local families without homes. Coordinating this ministry with other area churches, Grace will host families three or four different weeks during the year. Everyone can participate in this ministry by either cooking & serving food, providing activities for family members, donating bedding and towels, or being host to the families when they stay at our church.
