Every marriage has its strengths and its stresses. There’s not one that can’t be improved, fine-tuned, made stronger—or even overhauled—if needed.

In this six-session series made in partnership with FamilyLife, discover a transformative marriage resource designed to help you explore new levels of intimacy, communication, and connection with your spouse.

Whether you’re a newlywed or have been married for decades, this series can be your path to a stronger, more beautiful masterpiece of God’s handiwork.

Join us Saturday, 11/8 at Sierra Grace Fellowship from 9am-4pm. Cost is $40 per couple which includes workbooks and lunch. Scholarships are available if needed.

Childcare is not available for this event.

Contact Monica 530-401-6423 or Jason 530-305-7762 if you have any questions.

Gentlemen, you’re invited to join the Men’s MTB ride on 11/8. Meet at 8am in the front parking lot of SGF to carpool to Hidden Falls. RSVP to Mark Hallbourg at 530-320-7942.

As we approach Thanksgiving, we invite you to share with those in our community who do not have enough food. We will collect food next two Sundays for the Auburn Interfaith Food Closet. Collection boxes will be under the table with the offering box in the lobby.

Due to your generosity, the deacons will also be giving a monetary donation to the Auburn Interfaith Food Closet from the Deacon’s Fund on behalf of Sierra Grace.

We are also aware that some within our own body will find it a challenge to finance a celebratory meal this month. Our deacons have funds to assist the people in this body and the people of our community as needs arise. If you are finding your budget stretched to the limit, the deacons would like to bless you with a gift as an expression of the blessings God has poured onto and through this congregation.

Drop a note on a Connect Card into the offering box with contact information and information about your need, and the deacons will connect with you. This can be as simple as “help with food costs” or “my washing machine died.”

Looking for a way to serve? We have a new “Help Wanted” volunteer board which lists opportunities for you to get involved while using your gifts and talents in various ways.

Sign up below to receive email notifications when someone needs help with meals. You will be blessed as well.

We currently have one active meal train for the Kors family.

As most of you probably heard, Aaron has taken a sabbatical through the end of the year and will return in early January. The purpose of a sabbatical is to take an extended break to completely unplug from ministry and come back recharged, and even more passionate about ministry and about God.

During this time, I’d like to invite you to pray regularly for Aaron and his family. Also please pray for the leaders of our church who continue to minister during Aaron’s break. If you need to speak to an elder, please reach out to Gary, Mike, or Ryan. If you have other needs or questions, please reach out to Monica and she will direct you to the correct person.

Coming Soon! Online Church Directory

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 the online directory is active.

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.

The course will be held at High Street Bible Church on Sundays, January 4 – May 3rd from 2:00 ~ 5:00 pm
