The initial training for Certified Lay Ministers, held in July, turned up an interesting fact.
The Pacific Northwest is the most unchurched part of the United States, and, while the area's population has grown, church membership has declined.
Is God alive and well in this part of the country?
The congregation at Grace thinks so! God is alive in the Sunday worship and weekly Bible study. God is alive in the songs we sing and the scriptures we read. God is alive in our prayers and praise.
God is alive in our compassion for one another, as we reach out to neighbors, friends and family in times of illness or loss. God is alive in our celebrations of life's joys and successes.
The Pacific Northwest may be "unchurched." God is alive and well at Grace.
