Grace church celebrated 50 years of service to O'Fallon, Missouri, community by hosting an anniversary party and Tri-Church Picnic on August 6th!
We offer our utmost thanks for the charter members who came and shared their stories about the beginning of Grace United Church of Christ. Five ladies and one gentleman came to share, reminisce and to see the Grace that they had started in 1961. We are grateful for them.
The
Church Life Committee offers many thanks to all the people who organized the
event and to the people who staffed the various events of the day. We offer our
thanks for the wonderful meal, to those who were in charge of the luncheon and
those who served the luncheon.
The day was hot but the children didn’t mind the heat while ice-grass sledding down the hill, participating in other games or when bouncing in the bounce house. The adults chose not to participate in the games, but chose the air conditioned building and events inside. Bingo was a fun way to spend an hour and the cake and cupcake walk was enjoyed by many.

We wonder where Grace will be in another 50 years. It’s something to think and pray about.
