ESL - English classes at Grace are scheduled each Tuesday from 7-8pm throughout the month of June! |Along with learning and practicing English we get to study scripture and pray together each week. In the first week we discussed 1 Peter 5:7, “Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you". Just as the students took time to reflect on this verse, I encourage you to as well. What a blessing it is that we do not carry our burdens alone - Christ came to lift these burdens from our shoulders and take them upon his own because he loves and cares for us! You are invited to attend these classes as a conversation partner. This would be an opportunity to get to know the students personally and serve your neighbor just as Christ has called us to do. If you are interested in attending future classes, just one or multiple, contact Deaconess Anna.
Contact Donna Gesell for more information and for the Zoom link.
