EDUCATIONAL  UPDATE

In September, Derek will be continuing his seminary education with Master's Institute. He has two more years until he graduates with an M-Div degree in Christian Leadership. He has 14 credits left until graduation. This translates to multiple trips per year to both Minneapolis and California.

There are a few ways that you can help, if you would like to do so: First, if you would like to donate monetarily, you may write a check to Grace Church and please note "Derek's Education" in the memo. Also, if you have any airline miles you could donate, that would be an enormous help!

Derek is looking forward to the next year and wishes to express his gratitude to everyone who has supported him thus far. Thank you for your continued prayers and support.

WEST CYPRESS CHURCH YOUTH GROUP  

We are pleased to have W.C.C. Youth Group (from Cypress, CA) staying here at Grace this week while they spend their days doing ministry work in White River. Please pray for a special work of the Holy Spirit in and through each one of these faithful workers. They will be returning home on Friday.
