CURRENT EVENTS

GRACE GATHERINGS

Grace Gatherings is a small group, adult, dinner club with the goal of becoming socially connected with fellow parishioners. We meet monthly, starting in September, and share a meal. Each couple or single is tasked with hosting a meal; the meal can be in the hosts' home, a restaurant or Benedict Hall. The host provides the main dish and the other members of the group supply the side dishes and dessert. When everyone hosts, there is a great sense of bonding within the group. Grace Gatherings is an excellent way to get to know the people with whom you worship.

If you would like to join our dinner club or if you have any questions, please contact Jennifer DeFazio at defz5@comcast.net. I will be forming the groups for the Fall at the end of August. I look forward to our new year of shared meals.

CHANGE FOR CHANGE

For the month of August, our Change for Change focus will be IMPACT CLAY. Cash, change or checks can be dropped off in the offering plate. If writing a check, please put "outreach" on the memo line.

Impact Clay makes it easier for Clay County residents to get help—and for local nonprofits to deliver it. We bring nonprofits, businesses, faith groups, and local government together and run hands-on programs: mobile neighborhood care (Impact Clay Train), countywide disaster recovery (Recovering Clay), low-cost nonprofit workspace (Professional Center), shared community projects (Project Partners), leadership training (Global Leadership Summit), and a real-time resource platform (Linksy). Our collaborative efforts aim to build a stronger, more resilient Clay County where everyone can enjoy an improved quality of life. Explore our programs to find services or ways to get involved.

LOOKING FOR
PRAYER ANGELS

Looking for individuals that are searching for a way to support the ministry of Grace Episcopal Day School in the midst of an already over scheduled day and over tapped resources. If this describes you then YOU are the person that is perfect to become a “Prayer Angel”.

The only requirement is that you commit to pray for an individual Grace Episcopal Day School member daily. You will be given the name of the individual to pray for by name on your own schedule. If you feel moved to reach out with a note of affirmation or encouragement or a birthday card over the next school year, please do so. The staff would appreciate that gesture. The goal is to cover our major ministry with prayer. We all know what the power of prayer can do.

Be an angel and send your name to Fran Lang at fran_lang@hotmail.com or text 904-505-4881. She will send you the name of the person you are to lift up daily in prayer before September 1st. We will begin our prayers on September 1st and continue through out the school year.

Be blessed by being a blessing to another.

CLAY KITCHEN AT ORANGE PARK SENIOR CENTER

Our next opportunity to serve will be Saturday, August 22. Interested in helping? Contact John Phillips at jphillips653@aol.com

GRACE MOMS COLLECTIVE

Wednesday, September 2, 2026 at 10 am in Benedict Hall

Meet and Greet & Sharing Tips for Surviving the School Year!

This will be a gathering of moms who want to meet other moms and be part of our collective. We are a group of moms who like meeting others, like to volunteer and give back, and like to support others who are sharing our parenting journey.

For today's meeting - bring some tips for how you survive the school year. Also, just to have some fun - bring a little something that brings you joy or sanity, so that we can have a little swip swap. I'm probably bringing coffee or chocolate.

We will have coffee - iced and hot - available for those in attendance!

BE A PART OF THE TEAM!

Our 10:30 Sunday services have a variety of support roles. We are in dire need of some new people to help us! Please prayerfully consider how you might contribute to our services. We specifically need:
