Living Grace Newsletter | October 2025

Fall is upon us, windy and colorful! This month we have so much to share with you! Check out what's happening at Living Grace this Fall!

Baptism Sunday
On this Sunday, believers will openly profess their faith in Christ through water baptism.
Sunday, October 26, we will hold baptisms for any interested believers, at the morning services. The Bible says that all professing Christians should be baptized (Matthew 28:18-20). Whether you've been following Jesus for a long time and never got baptized or are a new Christian, we would be honored to baptize you! You can fill out the form on our mobile app or contact the church office to let us know you're interested.

Moms' Ministry
A new ministry dedicated to moms
Calling all moms!! The second Wednesday of the month, from 9-10:30 AM, will be a new ministry dedicated to moms in our community. This will be a wonderful time of fellowship and building one another up in our faith as we navigate life as moms! You can contact Lindsay Moran at lindseyannmoran@gmail.com for information on the ministry. Childcare will be provided. We hope to see you!

Men & Boys Camp Outing
Camp out in Wauseon for the men and boys
Friday October 17th will be our annual Men & Boys Camp Outing at the Hites' cabin in Wauseon, Ohio. The start and duration time will be Friday at 5PM to Saturday at 9AM. There will be food, fellowship, and lots of fun! Contact Pastor Jim with any questions.

Thanksgiving Outreach Opportunity!
Partnering with the AW Community Food Ministry Outreach
We have a Thanksgiving outreach opportunity. We are partnering with the Anthony Wayne Community Food Ministry by collecting pantry items for Thanksgiving (boxes of instant potatoes, boxes of stuffing mix, cans/jars of gravy, and cans of pumpkin). The collection date will be Sunday, November 9th, so please bring your food donations to Living Grace when you attend one of the services that morning.

Operation Christmas Child
Help Samaritan's Purse send gifts to children everywhere.
It's that time again...the annual shoebox drive organized by Samaritan's Purse. The list of items to fill the shoeboxes with and preprinted boy and girl labels to place on the boxes, will be available at the church until the drive is over. The final collection date will be on Sunday, November 16th, so bring your gift-laden shoe boxes to one of the services at the church any Sunday service up to that point.

Angel Tree Outeach
Help Springfield schools provide gifts to families in their community.
The annual Christmas gift drive for families of the Springfield school district is coming up soon. Like previous years, there will be a Christmas tree with receiving family names on gift tags hanging from it, that members of our church can choose to shop for. The final collection date should be on Sunday, December 7th, but stay tuned for more information until we know for sure.

Our teen group meets on Sundays from 6:00 - 7:30 PM at the church. Anyone between the ages 13-18 are welcome! They have awesome trips and events going on as well as a goal to understand what it means to be a Christian in today’s world for teens.
