Gracious Seniors is a program for retired people of all ages, held on the third Thursdays of February, May, August and November. The group shares a meal at noon and then sees a presentation from that month's guest speaker. Our programs are very interesting and are open to anyone, Grace members and non-members alike. It is a wonderful afternoon of food, fellowship, and fun. Please RSVP so they have a ballpark idea of how much food to prepare.
Next Luncheon Gathering The next Gracious Seniors Luncheon will be held on Thursday, August 15 at 12 noon in Fellowship Hall. In her program "Teacher in Space," Jann Huggins will tell us about her training at NASA to be the first teacher to go into space. However, she was not selected to go. As those who witnessed will never forget, on January 28, 1986, the Space Shuttle Challenger broke apart 73 seconds into its flight, killing all seven crew members aboard. Jann is a compelling speaker and will surely hold our undivided attention. August's meal will include turkey BBQ sandwiches. We will need sides, desserts and beverages, please if you can, bring something to share. Sign up sheets will be on the bulletin boards at church so we know how many to expect, or you can call the church office to RSVP.
Do you or perhaps a friend have an interesting hobby or pictures from a trip that you would like to share at one of our future Senior Luncheons? We have had some great programs presented by our own members and are always looking for more. Talk with Sandy Schantz (contact info above) if you are interested in sharing.
On Thursday, May 16 at noon, Rev. Rachael Dietz and Chipotle gave an informative, funny, and touching presentation. Thank you to Al McCrae for the AV setup, to Judy Reppert for the Thrivent sponsorship, and to Sandy Schantz and Dennis Meck for cooking and serving the meal.
