Grace Disability Ministry
Grace Disability finds its roots in a biblical view of humanity which says that every individual has inherent value, as every person is an image bearer of God (Genesis 1:26-31, Psalm 8:4-5). The individuals and families who experience disability are indispensable to the purpose and goal of the church, and our aim is to support them as they live out their unique calling. This fall, we are launching a Mothers Experiencing Disability group as part of this ministry. For more information, please contact us at care@gracebaptist.org

Grace Kids
God promised to make Abraham into a great nation and to bless the world through his family. God began fulfilling this promise with the birth of Abraham’s son, Isaac. Then Isaac had two sons, Jacob and Esau. Last week, we taught how God renewed his promise to Abraham with Jacob. In his dream, God came down to Jacob and promised to be with him and keep his promises. The family of Abraham was growing larger as Jacob married and had twelve sons. This Sunday, we will teach about Jacob’s son, Joseph, and how God was always with him.
A lot of bad things happened in Joseph’s life, but God had a plan for good. Bad things also happened to Jesus. Jesus never sinned, but he was arrested, beaten and killed on a cross. Those things happened to bring about our good so people could be saved from sin and death through Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection.
Please pray for our kids to know that God knows everything and sees everything going on in their lives. So, they can have faith that he is in control and are working all things for his good plan. Pray for them to know only faith in Jesus saves them from sin and gives them hope of life with God forever.
