The Grace Kids Music program, affectionately called GKM, is a seasonal program designed for kids to tell the stories of Jesus through their eyes through music and theater. GKM is for children and students who love, or may be introduced to, the arts in grades K-12. Throughout the fall, weekly rehearsals culminate with a big program in worship in mid-December. During Equipping Hour, we will also have our monthly Sunday Funday!

This year, the annual Christmas Musical presentation is Sunday, December 13 at 9:30 a.m. during worship. For October-December rehearsals: GKM K-12 will meet on Sundays from October 12 through December 7, from noon-3 p.m. in Massey-Tucker Hall B and then move to the choir room. Dress rehearsal is Saturday, December 13. The cost is $50 and includes lunch each week and a T-shirt. Scholarships are available - just email Johneice at jhaney@gpch.org.

A Note from Pastor Julia

I hope this finds you well and blessed and seeing God’s richest mercies in your life. We are so grateful for all that the Lord did in and through us last year, and we are excited to see how God will move in the year ahead. In September, we kicked off our ministry year with a vibrant ministry fair, where we learned each ministry area is committed to being EQUIPPED to share the Gospel where we live, work, and play. We started our Bible in a Year plan, to develop a thirst for Scripture and create habits in our daily lives to deepen our relationship with God. As we abide in His Word, we will look at how our next step, and our response to God’s call and generosity in our lives, can lead to blessings throughout our community and around the world.

We have seen God’s hands at work this year throughout the Westchase community as we SERVED though mentoring, working in the community garden and gathering back-to-school needs in our partnership schools. We built 65 beds for those without a place to sleep as a part of our annual Christmas for the City serve day. We joined with thousands in the community to WORSHIP at a beautiful Easter Camden Park celebration! We have seen every generation come together for WORSHIP at the Young Adults Worship Night, Activate for our students, VBS, Grace 812 and our Sunday services. Bible studies are flourishing TOGETHER with Christ-centered teaching and genuine community. God continues to bless His church and lives are being transformed.

You may make your pledge online HERE. Together, we will have the chance to respond to God’s call as an act of worship in the coming weeks, as we each submit our pledge cards either by mail, online, or in person. Our church family will dedicate these offerings on Sunday, November 16 during worship.

If you would like to see more about the 2026 budget, more detailed information is available HERE. 

In His Grip,
Julia Leeth, Senior Pastor

Make A Joyful Noise with the Grace Chancel Choir!
Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. Worship the LORD with gladness; Come before him with joyful songs. --Psalm 100

You've seen the choir up on the chancel during Sunday worship, you've even sung along from the pews, but have you ever thought about joining in? Now is your chance! This fall, we are opening up the choir and inviting members of the congregation to join us in a limited number of rehearsals and on selected Sundays for worship. Singing is at the heart of our weekly worship; everyone has a voice to share, and we want to hear yours! This offering is your chance to meet those in the music ministry at Grace, experience the joy of coming together and singing in community, and serve the congregation in worship. All ages and ability levels are welcome to participate; no previous singing experience is necessary!
