Brothers & Sisters in Christ;
Holy week blessings to all! On Sunday, we enter into the holiest of weeks for Christians. Even though we can’t be together in the sanctuary, the Holy Spirit holds our hearts together in Christ! Join us here, on the website for Palm Sunday worship & loud “Hosannas!”
On Maundy Thursday, worship that includes the stripping of the altar will be posted. Then join us again here on Good Friday, for The Seven Last Words of Jesus.
If you would like to have someone included in the prayers on Easter, please send that info to the church office via either email (gracelutrn@verizon.net) or phone (610-948-3684). We will include your prayers of concern and your prayers of thanksgiving for blessings around us.
A GIANT thank you to all who have mailed offerings and contributed online, to Grace during this time. We thank God for your faithfulness to our ministries as we continue to do God’s work in the world. We welcome contributions during this time to support the work of Grace. If you are struggling financially and need connection to possible resources or prayer, please let us know.
Remember, we will get through this. God is abundantly faithful! Stay connected and remind each other that we have a good and loving God!
“The wilderness and dry land shall be glad, the desert shall rejoice and blossom; like the crocus it shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice with joy and singing.”
Isaiah 35:1-2
Yours in Christ, Pastor Krais

Although we are not able to meet in person at Grace just now, we are gaining a whole new appreciation of what connection means. In this time where we are required to practice social distancing, PLEASE pick up your phone and call your friends from Grace to ask how they are doing and offer to pray for and with them.

Kelsey is offering Facebook Live and Instagram (grace.lutheran.royersford) posts for the youth. Sundays around 10:45/11:00am she does mostly a children’s message and Wednesdays around 4pm she does a Lenten message with the plants that were started the first Wednesday in Lent. Check them out!!
When you leave a voice mail at the office, please know that Phyllis is checking the main voice mail box regularly and staff are also checking their voice mail boxes regularly. Emailing the church staff is also a great way to be in touch.
Please consider giving online by clicking – Online Giving
We have several ways for you to continue to give to the ministries, salaries and expenses that Grace will still have. Of course, you can always mail your offerings to the church office; we will continue to pick up mail and make deposits as needed. As usual anyone who is participating in Simply Giving will be automatically keeping up with their giving. We understand that some folks may be experiencing a lull in their work and may need to adjust their giving. Please feel free to call the church office and leave a message or send an email, if you need to change something.
We now have two other ways you can continue to support Grace – We have online giving above; you can click on “Online Giving” and it will take you to an area where you can select where you want your money to go, how much, how often and when. You then set up a user profile and give either your bank/checking information or credit card information. Or you can call Vanco (our giving agent) at 1-800-675-7430 and give them our church name and ID #504735733. They will ask you a few questions over the phone and you can give that way.
Thank you for your continued generosity and prayerfulness, as we navigate this new and temporary reality.
