Connecting People to God's Grace

FROM THE PRINCIPAL'S DESK

Hello Titan Family,


It was great to welcome the students back from Spring Break! Now we make the final push to the end of the school year!


Quick Highlights


  • Calls Extended - The Stevensons are having a lot of really great conversations with people connected to Grace as they consider where God would have them serve. You are welcome to reach out to them and offer to talk about the ministry at Grace, or simply let them know you are praying for them during their deliberation. I updated Ellen's email with the most current information.

  • New Pastor at Grace - Grace was blessed to have our call for a second pastor accepted by Pastor Paul Jenkins. Pastor Jenkins currently serves one of our congregations in the Washington DC area and I was blessed to meet with him and talk about Grace while I was out there on an accreditation visit. Pastor Jenkins will be moving into the parsonage on May 20th and installed as a pastor at Grace on May 25th. We are excited for him to join the ministry team at Grace!


  • Mr. Beilke's Bracket Challenge - Congratulations to Graham Hall the 2025 Mr. Beilke's Bracket Challenge Champion! It was a great tournament with an exciting ending - March Madness lived up to the hype!


  • Campus Clean-up - We have our Spring Campus Clean-up scheduled for Saturday 4/12 from 9AM - 12PM. Many hands make light work, so if you have some time to spare, we'd love for you to join us!


  • Palm Sunday Singing - The students get to sing at both services this Sunday! Check out the information below for all the details.


  • Good Friday Early Dismissal - Remember on Good Friday we will have an early dismissal at 11:45 so that people can make it to Good Friday Worship at 12:00PM. We would love for you to join us.


  • South Bend Cubs Deadline - Please make sure you have filled out the Registration Form for the South Bend Cubs game by Monday, April 14! This will help us make final preparations for this Titan Family Field Trip!


Check out the rest of the Titan Times for details on the other events and activities on the horizon!


Have a blessed week,


Mr. Beilke

This Sunday, our entire school will be singing for both of our Palm Sunday worship services! The students will sing during the Palm Processional at the start of each service, helping us set the tone as we celebrate our Savior King.


I know it’s a big ask, but we’d love to have the students participate in both the 8:00 AM and 10:30 AM services. Just imagine the impact of our full student body raising their voices in praise—what a powerful witness that would be to everyone in worship!


Students should meet in their classrooms 10 minutes before each service to receive their palm branch and line up for the processional.


Between services, we invite you to join us for Sunday School and Bible Class. The current Bible study series is focused on Outreach & Evangelism—a timely topic as we prepare to share the joy of Easter.


Looking forward to worshiping with you this weekend!
