It’s time again for Grace’s Annual Women’s Mother’s Day Luncheon!

Held on Sat., May 9th from 12:00-2:00 in the Grace UMC Fellowship Hall,  we’ll once again be collecting baby receiving blankets and disposable diapers, all to reach out to needy mothers and their babies.  The theme for the luncheon this year is “What My Mama always said”, so please be ready to share the wise words you always heard your mother say to you.

All women of Grace are invited to attend and to bring family and friends.  If you are able, please bring a salad to share.  Dessert and drinks will be provided.

Hope to see everyone.

What a great group of walkers! Thanks to Elaine Chaney who coordinated the Grace team and all who made the yummy lunch before the walk, which brought in an additional $50 for the Grace UMC overall contribution of $805. Our walkers included Elaine and Katie Chaney, Nancy Lindsay, Donovan Steen, Sharon Howell, David Mitschelen, Adam Fambrough, Kathy and Tom Calnan, Vanessa, Noah, and David De La Rosa. Vanessa’s parents also joined the group at the park.

Join us on July 3rd @ 7:30 in our beautiful outdoor garden for Austin WONDER BRASS.

Austin WONDER BRASS was formed in 2005 by a group of Austin musicians to promote the enjoyment of British Brass Band music by the folks in Austin and Central Texas and to provide musicians the experience of playing this wonderful music.

We’re happy to have them back once again this year.

To the new home of Grace United Methodist Church.
