Adult Education

Here at Grace, we have a number of educations opportunities for both adults and youth.

Adult Education Opportunities

All Adult Education Opportunities are currently meeting in person and via Zoom. Zoom information can be found in the e-mail version of the Grace Notes. Contact the office to be added to our e-mail list. 

Adult Sunday School

The Adult Sunday School is taught by Pastor Chris Repp and others in the Hoffmeister Room.  It meets on Sunday mornings year-round.  The start time is 10:45 a.m. following the church service.

Pub Theology

Politics and religion are the two things you’re not supposed to talk about at a dinner party, lest you give rise to a heated argument and spoil the occasion. And yet both religion and politics are among the most important things we have to talk about. They affect our lives in significant ways. We want to give you a chance to talk about religion at least, in an informal setting outside of Church.  During Pub Theology, we gather at a local bar to talk about matters of faith over an adult beverage or two.  Please contact the office (office@glccu.org or 217-356-6232) for more information.

On The Way

On The Way is an opportunity to deepen our faith and work on our discipleship.  The model for On The Way traces its origins to the early church.  The pattern for our time together will be threefold. We’ll start with a brief presentation on a topic related to the faith, followed by questions and discussion. We will then spend time with a biblical text. This will not be a traditional Bible study. No special knowledge about the Bible is needed. We will focus on listening, both to the text and to one another. We will not focus on the right answers, but on a process of discovery in conversation with one another, and sometimes with those who have gone before us in the faith through their writings. We will finish each session with a time of directed prayer that will include one-on-one conversation, silent prayer, and finishing with corporate prayer. The goal is to make time each week to focus on our relationship with God, to become more comfortable with the question Jesus asks his disciples: “Who do you say that I am?”

Women of the ELCA (WELCA)

As a community of women created in the image of God, called to discipleship in Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves to grow in faith, affirm our gifts, support one another in our callings, engage in ministry and action, and promote healing and wholeness in the church, the society, and the world.

We strive to mobilize women to act boldly on their faith in Jesus Christ.

Faith Circle

Faith Circle is scheduled to meet on the third Tuesday evening of the month from September through May, unless notified differently. Meetings are held in the Narthex beginning with coffee and fellowship at 7:00 p.m.

Food Pantry Needs

Food Pantry Update

The GLC Food Pantry is very thankful for your continued support and your prayers on behalf of this important ministry. We continue to distribute food via the drive-thru system begun at the start of the pandemic.

CURRENT NEEDS:  We would love to give our families fresh apples. If you find a good price, please consider purchasing an extra bag and placing it in the cooler in the south kitchen.

PLEASE DO NOT BRING PLASTIC BAGS OR EGG CARTONS AT THIS TIME. CURRENTLY WE HAVE A SURPLUS OF THESE ITEMS. WE WILL ASK YOU FOR THEM WHEN WE NEED THEM AGAIN.  THANK YOU.

We appreciate your contributions and your prayers on behalf of the work we do together.

Your Pantry Board,

Kathy Bowersox, Jim Fleming, Dale Herrstrom, Karen Krusa, and Royce Wilken
