SMALL GROUPS AND OUTREACH MINISTRIES

Here at Grace we take our Inspired Community Outreach mission very seriously. The more participation we have in these ministries, the greater the outreach. Newcomers/participants are always welcome.

Naomi's Friends

A support group for widows meets at 9:00 a.m. on the first Saturday of every month @ Country House, 10 3rd St. LaSalle, IL 

Prayer Shawl Ministry

A team of dedicated creative women meets regularly to create prayer shawls to be taken to shut-ins and other hurting people in our community. Prayers are said for the recipients of each shawl and the ladies enjoy fellowship with one another, as well. Every Wed @ 6 PM at Karen Swains Home.

Missions Team

We have an active missions team that visit sick and shut-ins. They also educate our church regarding Rainbow Covenant missions and encourage our donations to those worthy charities.
