Christmas Missions Emphasis

For the past several years we have blessed our missionaries with a special Christmas gift. Missionary life can be difficult for many reasons and finances are often tight. We want to let them know we stand with them in prayer and financial support.

THE END IS DRAWING NEAR !!  Our 2025 Christmas Missionary fund drive will soon be over.  If you have not participated yet- but want to, please don’t procrastinate any longer.  You can go online and give using the button below.

Our goal for 2025 is $45,000 and we are over halfway there so far.  Donate by 12/31 to help us achieve this milestone, and you will be providing important financial support to our 9 full time missionaries.

Our Gift to You!
Our Gift to You!

Our church provides access to thousands of free resources including Bible studies for all ages, kid’s shows, conferences, and more. Text sierragrace to 49775 today to get started or scan the QR code. You may share this with your family and friends.

Church Center Online Directory is Available!

The Online Directory is available now! Within the next week you should be receiving an invitation to join the online directory in Church Center. If you haven’t received an invitation email, send a request to monica@sierragrace.org

The directory is a private place for the people in your church to communicate with one another. Only people invited to the directory can see the others or share their information. When you invite someone, they will receive an email with their contact information and the option to approve their listing in the directory. Each invited person can choose the information they want to show about themselves or their household.

For security, your email address will not appear, but others can send you an email through Church Center. You will then have the opportunity to decide whether or not to respond and share your email with them.

Download the Church Center app to stay updated about events, sign-ups, giving and small groups. 

Be sure to update your profile the first time you login. We transferred information from our last database, and want to be sure all of your contact information is correct. Also, create your household if it hasn’t already been done, add your birthdate, anniversary date, and add a current photo. This will help tremendously when trying to remember the name of that person you recently met.

 

SGF en Español Available Now

We are excited to announce that live translations of the worship service will be available in multiple languages including Spanish.  The program will also transcribe in English, which will give our deaf and hard of hearing community a way to participate.

This is a great opportunity to tell others about how they can be connected in their native language while attending here at Sierra Grace.

There is a poster in the lobby with a QR code and instructions to access the translation.

Below is the link that is only live during our second worship service which begins at 10:45am.
