If you're new, stop by The Engage Center on The Patio after services to pick up your welcome gift. We'd love to meet you and help you explore what could be your next steps at Grace. And, if you're looking to join a small group (Adult Bible Fellowship or Grace Group), come get more details, or click below and let us help you get connected!
Adult Bible Fellowships
Looking to get plugged into the Grace Baptist Family? Join an ABF!
ABFs provide a place for the Grace family to meet and study God's word together in a small group setting! You will have more time for fellowship, prayer, and connection on a deeper level. Many of our ABFs are multigenerational, and we encourage believers of all different ages and walks of life to gather together in community. ABFs meet on Sundays during both services. We would love for you to check one out. For a list of the ABFs currently meeting, click the link below.

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 we aim to support them as they live out their unique calling. We are launching a Mothers Experiencing Disability group as part of this ministry. For more information, please contact us at care@gracebaptist.org

GRACE CARE VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES:
Grace Chaplain Ministry
The Care Department is seeking godly men from the Grace Family who would like to volunteer for a 4-hour shift in the morning or afternoon during business hours. This valuable ministry provides support to our Pastors of the Week by answering calls or conducting informal meetings with those who call or walk in in search of support, biblical guidance, and prayer as they share their current life struggles.
Anyone interested can email counseling@gracebaptist.org or call the church office at 661-296-8737 X153 for a volunteer application.Home Team
Do you have special carpentry or repair skills and are willing to join our Home Team Ministry? Home Team provides free to low-cost maintenance repairs for our widows, senior members, and single moms. If you’re interested in serving in this worthwhile ministry, call the church office at 661-296-8737 X153 for a volunteer application.
Grace Kids
This Sunday is an All Family Sunday. All Kindergarten – 6th grade children will join us in the worship service. Our PreK and younger kids and our friends with special needs will still meet.
Those meeting will continue their study in Numbers and be taught that God always works for his people’s good. Yet, as we’ve seen, God’s people do not always obey him. We’ve taught how the Israelites grumbled against God when they didn’t have the food they had in Egypt. Even though God provided for their needs, they grumbled for more. Last week, we taught how the people doubted God and refused to enter the Promised Land. They chose to fear the people in Cannan more than they feared the Lord. This Sunday, in our study of Numbers 16; 20-21, we’ll teach how the Israelites sinned when they complained against God and Moses.
Like the Israelites, we sin when we complain and do not trust God. The Israelites faced death for their sin, but when they looked to the bronze snake, they were healed. The consequence for our sin is also death, but when we look to Jesus and trust in him, we will be saved.
Please pray for our kids to look to Jesus and ask him to save them from their sins. Ask the Lord to help them understand only he is able to forgive them and rescue them from death.
Upcoming Events:
Summer Adventure | June 23-27, 2025!
