SUMMARY:Innovator Gathering - Zoom
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, July 17\, 2025\nZoom (bring your lunch!) at Noon \nREGISTER FOR JULY EVENT \nWe have learned that folks often see these gatherings and think “I don’t have a big idea” or “I don’t feel called to start a new church”\, and they self-select out (thinking that they don’t consider themselves an “innovator”) and don’t come. So we want to issue a NEW INVITATION that hopes to add some clarity about these gatherings: \nYou\, yes YOU\, are welcome and wanted here. Join these gatherings if you are hungry for creativity and collaboration. Join these gatherings if you are wondering about the work of innovation and new ministry development. Bring your questions\, your curiosity\, your imaginings… whether you have a big idea or not\, there is room at the table (or on the zoom call) for you! We need to hear your voice\, understand your challenges\, and celebrate your successes. These gatherings are intended to be generative and relational\, a place of connection. If that sounds like something you are interested in\, we would love to see you! \nPlease register for the in-person or zoom gatherings so we can know who is joining in.

SUMMARY:Stewardship & Generosity Conversation: East Region
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE \nSeptember 23\, 2025\nTuesday at Noon\nFirst Presbyterian Church \n301 N Center St\, Longview\, TX 75601 \nYou are cordially invited to gather with your presbytery colleagues for a time of fellowship\, prayer and to hear a special presentation from Rev. Christopher M. Lee\, Executive Presbyter\, regarding stewardship and generosity within the bounds of Grace Presbytery. We hope that you will join us in celebrating God’s abundant provision for the ministries of Grace Presbytery in 2025 while we look forward to 2026! Our shared ministry unites us and bears witness to God’s desire for justice\, mercy\, and love. \nAs we consider our shared ministry\, I am reminded of the words of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who once said\, “Whatever affects one directly\, affects all indirectly. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be\, and you can never be what you ought to be until I am what I ought to be. This is the inter-related structure of reality.” Our time together will include a conversation on the importance of the continued support of our shared ministry. All are welcome to join us.\nFood will be provided so we kindly ask that you RSVP. \nIf you have any questions\, please reach out to Tammy Stepka\, Coordinator of Office & Ministry Support\, via email at tammy@gracepresbytery.org or by phone\, (214) 393-5607.

SUMMARY:Winter Retreat
DESCRIPTION:December 19 – 21\, 2025\nLEARN MORE & REGISTER HERE\nGilmont Camp and Conference Center\n6075 State Hwy 155\, Gilmer\, TX 75644 \nJoin us for your favorite camp activities as well as a few special winter games and treats! Campers decorate cookies\, carol around the camp fire\, and build their own “snowmen.” We can’t promise snow – but we can guarantee it will be a good time! \nLast year’s Winter Retreat theme – Light The Way – focused on the Advent Candles of love\, hope\, joy\, and peace. Candles provide light and warmth and show us what is around us. Similarly\, love\, hope\, joy\, and peace provide us wisdom and guide us as we live out our faith in the world. As we prepared to celebrate the birth of Jesus\, we also considered what the Advent season teaches us about right and faithful ways of living. \nRight before Christmas\, Winter Retreat is the perfect opportunity to get the kids out of the house for last-minute Christmas shopping or can be gifted as an early Christmas present to grandkids\, nieces and nephews\, and other younger family members or friends.
