Grace Lutheran Church & School


		Benevolences: Partners in Ministry and Mission Grace Church gives ten percent of its annual budget to ministries beyond its doors. The Benevolence Committee oversees the benevolence budget. Grace's Social Ministry Committee helps Grace members get involved in ministry opportunities.
