Anyone interested can email counseling@gracebaptist.org or call the church office to speak to Wagner Floriani at 661-296-8737 X153 for a volunteer application.Home Team

If interested in serving in this worthwhile ministry, call Wagner Floriani at 661-296-8737 X153 for a volunteer application.
Grace Kids
Last week, we learned from Acts 7 that a disciple named Stephen suffered and died for loving Jesus and sharing the good news. But this did not stop believers from continuing to share the Gospel.
This Sunday, we’ll see the rippling effects of Stephen’s stoning. Severe persecution broke out against the church in Jerusalem and all but the apostles scattered while Saul ravaged the church. However, as these believers dispersed, they continued living on mission, preaching the Word of God boldly rather than cowering to their circumstances.
Specifically, we’ll focus on the apostle Philip’s encounter with the official. Here, we see a follower of Jesus step confidently into a situation where the Lord had gone before him. Philip’s obedience led him to clarify the Scriptures and point the Ethiopian to Christ.
As a believer, we’re called to go and share the gospel. As we go, God will lead us to people who need to hear the good news so they can believe in Jesus and be saved from their sins.
Please pray for our kids to believe the gospel for themselves and, like Philip, to trust and obey the leading of the Holy Spirit for the sake of making the gospel known to others.
Mark your calendars:
Summer Adventure will be June 24-28, 2024.
Volunteer registration begins on April 1, 2024.
