In Loving memory of Barbara Brisco
Barbara and her husband Ken, or Ken & Barbie as Ken would introduce them, are regular attenders here at Grace Fellowship. Barbara went home to be with her Lord and Savior on December 21st. Barbara and Ken were married for 59 years. She received her registered nursing degree prior to marriage. Barbara served as a missionary in Colombia for 9 years alongside Ken. Upon returning to the states, she continued to work as a full-time nurse, and care for their three children, as well as support her husband as a pastor’s wife. She and Ken also served the Latino community for 50+ years in Chicago and California. She lived to serve others and share her faith through the opportunities encountered during everyday life. The flowers on the stage are in loving memory of Barbara.
Upcoming Sermon Topics
In the next few weeks, we will dive into a series called Faith that Works as we walk through the biblical book of James. And then will do a series on the 10 Commandments titled Law of Love. So, stay tuned and pray that God uses His Word to transform hearts, change lives, and grow our church from the inside out!
Giving – The Why & How
Generosity & Faithfulness: Financial Giving
Financial giving to the work of God through the local church is a form of worship. The Bible teaches followers of Jesus to give regularly, proportionally, generously, joyfully, and sacrificially (2 Cor. 8:1-15; Luke 21:1-4). Your contributions support Christ-centered outreach projects and partnerships locally and around the world; ongoing church ministries, programs, and events; administration and facility-related expenses; and staff compensation. We don’t pass a plate, but if you want to give, you can contribute online at www.gfol.orguse the QR code here, text GIVE to 720-513-1722, or use the “Offering” box located inside the worship center doors. Thank you!

Communion / The Lord’s Supper

Communion/The Lord’s Supper
Here at Grace, we celebrate Communion every Sunday. Also known as the Lord’s Supper, this ceremony was instituted by Jesus Christ to help his followers worship Him and honor the work He has done to save us from our sins and make us right with God. In the biblical book of 1 Corinthians 11:23-26, the Apostle/Missionary Paul said this: 
 … the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” In the same way also he took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.” For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.”
 

The bread symbolizes the body of Jesus given for us. The wine symbolizes the blood of Jesus shed for us. If you have put your full trust in Jesus Christ as your Savior, Lord, King, and the Forgiver of your sins, and your heart is right toward God and his people (1 Corinthians 11:27-28), you are encouraged to serve yourself at one of the Communion tables during worship. Eat the bread and drink the wine to remember Jesus’ death, give thanks, and declare your faith in Him. If you decide not to participate because you are not a believer in Christ or for some other reason, please know that we respect your choice
