Sunday, Aug 2
Promotion Sunday
Mark your calendars — Promotion Sunday is August 2nd!
This is the day incoming kindergartners and 6th graders move up to their new departments, and we want to make the transition as smooth as possible for the whole family.
Incoming kindergartners will check in at GraceKids as usual. From there, our care team will walk them down to the Elementary Department — no need to find it on your own. We'll do everything we can to help your little one feel right at home.
Incoming 6th graders will check in at GracePoint Students at 10am. A few things for parents to know: Student Ministry for middle schoolers meets at 10am only. We don’t use name tags and there's no formal checkout process. After the service, your student is free to head out on their own.
We're excited to welcome your kids into their new ministry homes!

New Small Groups Begin
We weren't meant to walk through life alone. If you've been thinking about joining a small group, now's the perfect time to jump in!
Groups are where community happens. It's more than just growing in what you know — groups are a place where we practice loving others, the way Jesus calls us to.
Ready to get plugged in? Fill out the sign-up form and share your preferences and availability, and we'll match you with a group that fits.
You were created for community. Let's help you find yours.
