The mission given to every Christian church is to communicate the message of God's love to those who have not yet heard, or maybe have heard but don't understand and have not yet responded. The words of Jesus were very clear. "go make disciples". If we are not living out these instructions, we are missing the objective Jesus set for us. Grace Community Church has been able to positively impact the lives of many. However, there are mulitiple thousands on whom we have yet had little or no impact. So together, we have committed to Increasing Our Impact on the unsaved through growing spiritually,developing and engaging people in ministry, strengthening relationships and giving generously to increase the capacity of our church facility. Grace has never been a church that sat on the sidelines. Rather, from the very beginning in January 2004, we have engaged and invested in our area so that we might have a positive, significant spiritual impact on the communities of Southwest Washington. In 2008 we reached the point where we were restricted in fulfilling our mission by a lack of space. As a result, we acquired a temporary facility at 1311 Lewis River Rd., Woodland. This location is intended to serve the needs of the church until we can build a permanent home on our property at 1700 Down River Dr. While we believe that church is so much more than paint and sheetrock, the practical necessity of space to increase our ministries and their impacts is a major issue. We would like to invite everyone who shares in the vision I've outlined above to become a shareholder, both spiritually and financially, to this end. Thanks for taking the journey to Increase Our Impact by becoming an active giver to this goal. I believe it is God's plan, and with Him...NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE Pastor Todd
