2014 Missionary for a Day Campaign begins!

Yes! Grace still supports Dr Steve and Bethany Friberg in Tanzania! We will focus in November, on bring their stories forward as well as asking for folks to sponsor them as they share the Good News. $20 for each day of sponsorship is quite a bargain. You can sponsor multiple days. Remembering loved ones passed, honoring special occasions, or just for the fun of it...all donations are appreciated. Choose your special days after worship on Sunday morning or bring/mail your choices with a check or cash to the church office (907 Luther Dr, Wilmington IL 60481).
