WOMEN'S AND MEN'S RETREATS



Deadlines for registrations are approaching quickly! Sign up today!

WOMEN'S RETREAT
Join us for a fun overnight getaway in Galveston at the historic Tremont House on March 27-28, 2026! Our theme is Restored to Rise, and we'll be led by our very own Ivy Castle Simpson. You won't want to miss her inspiring, heartfelt message. Women of all ages will be refreshed during this time of fellowship, discipleship, and learning.

PLEASE NOTE: Once you complete this registration form and pay the $100 conference fee, you'll be sent a link to reserve your room at The Tremont House at our special discounted rate (only one person in your room needs to reserve a room).

If you have questions, please contact Traci Baudin at tbaudin@gpch.org. Registration is available HERE.




MEN'S RETREAT
Being a man in 2026 is more spiritually challenging than at any other time in our lives-and leading as one is harder still. Modern culture often erases authentic Christian masculinity by labeling it as either "toxic" or "weak," a shift that has eroded healthy leadership in our homes, churches, and communities. Join Grace Men at this retreat to reclaim your identity in Christ. Learn to lead through a masculinity that brings purpose to your soul, your family, and your world. We will conclude our time together with worship on Sunday morning.

Dates: March 20-22

Location: Camp Cho-Yeh, Livingston, Texas

Bring: Bible, and clothes for mild physical activity.

Cost: $225 (scholarships are available for any who need it)

COVENANT PARTNER COURSE



The Covenant Partner Course is for all who are interested in learning more about Grace’s key theological beliefs and the vision, the mission, and the strategy. The course is led by pastors, elders, deacons, and staff and it is our unique way of talking about membership in a congregation. During the course, you will be invited to explore how joining as a “Covenant Partner” is a significant next step in your journey of faith in Jesus. Refreshments and drinks will be provided. If you have children, Children’s Ministry offerings will be provided from 11 a.m. to noon and then childcare will be provided until 1 p.m. When you register for the course, you will be asked to register your child for childcare.

The next course will be held this Sunday, March 1 at 11 a.m. in MTH A. If you would like to be a part of this class, contact Jamie Horton at jhorton@gpch.org, we would be delighted to see you!




EASTER BASKETS FOR PCHAS



This Lenten season, Grace will once again come together to bless 20 single-parent families through our partnership with Presbyterian Children's Homes and Services. Parents are working hard to build a strong future for their children and we are honored to come alongside them to be an encouragement and supporter by surprising families with special baskets filled with Easter treats, games, and crafts. Empty baskets are ready to pick up in the Connection Center, or by contacting Tammy Box at tbox@gpch.org. We ask that filled and decorated baskets be returned by March 16.

A change for 2026: PCHAS has noted a significant increase in food insecurity and is asking for our Easter Baskets to be more family-food-oriented. Donations will still be packed up in a decorated basket, and we encourage families to add some Easter items, but we are requesting mostly shelf stable food such as peanut butter, jelly, pancake mix, pasta, fruit (canned or in single serve bowls), cornbread mix, hearty soup mixes, saltines or other crackers, Velveeta or other cheese products, pasta sauce, vegetables in plastic jars or cans, beans, and a gift card that might help purchase eggs, bacon, sausage, meat or other protein items that complement the basket items. 

GOOD NEWS OF THE WEEK

We celebrate the things that we have offered to God that are bearing fruit-- We celebrate what God is doing!

Lunch was served! Student Sunday was a joy-filled day! We believe in every generation engaged in sharing both God's Good News and their everyday lives and Sunday was a sweet example of that belief in action as the middle school and high school students led us in worship. Following the service, the family of Grace stayed for lunch and through a silent auction, raffles, and games, raised funds for student mission trips! What a beautiful celebration of the way God is moving in our student ministries.

THE BIBLE IN A YEAR UPDATES

Dive into Episode 11 of The Grace Cast with us! Pastor Julia and Daniel go through Job and catch us up to speed on Song of Songs

Grace's podcast--Grace Cast--is available once a month! Grace Cast includes discussions from our pastors, ministry leaders and all generations of our congregation coming together to share their thoughts, insights, tough questions and summaries on our scripture readings. The format is light and conversational. It is available on Spotify, and on our YouTube channel.

HERE you will find a multitude of other resources to help you with the reading plan, including videos, podcasts, and articles to bring greater insight to what you have read. You will also find recaps and summaries of sections for times when you may fall behind. Keep up the good work!
