Hello Grace Vineyard Family and Friends!
I’m about to leave for the mountains. The men’s retreat starts tonight, and we’ll be heading out as soon as I send you this week’s update email from Grace Vineyard.
So the first thing to mention is – PRAY for the men’s retreat! We are anticipating significant encounters with the Lord and with each other.
Serving at Navigation Center Tonight
Tonight we’re going to put on another event for the guests at the Oceanside branch of the San Diego Rescue Mission, aka The Navigation Center. This is a super easy way to join the mission of Jesus locally. At an event like this we typically provide food, music, prayer, friendship, kindness, and love to people who have found themselves in a difficult place in life. Reach out to Venita for all the details via voice or text at . You can get info on the Navigation Center Here: https://www.sdrescue.org/what-we-do/oceanside/
Face to Face Friday, March 21st
Ladies, you are invited to join us for a time of worship, sharing, discussion and prayer at the home of Jeannie Isbell (3305 Belle Lane, Carlsbad 92008). We’ll gather at 6:30 for snacks and hang out and begin at 7 pm. Bring a snack to share. For more information, please text or call Kim Ohst 760.519.4558.
Mom 2 Mom March 28
Are you a mom in need of support from other moms? Or are you a mom who has been there and want to lend your support to others? Then you are welcome to attend the kickoff of Mom 2 Mom, a peer to peer and mentoring group designed to uplift, enrich, share and connect moms. We’ll gather for our first meeting March 28th at 6pm at Grace Vineyard on the terrace for a program that will include sharing a meal, connecting, inspiration and resources. Childcare will be provided. To find out more, call Sheri Winter at 760.208.8403.
Kathy Green Speaking This Sunday
I’m very excited to let you all know that while I’m up at the Men’s retreat this coming Sunday, Kathy Green will be bringing the message at Grace Vineyard. Her title is “The Redemptive Power of God – What’s Your Story?”. She’ll be talking about God’s call to the kingdom and what to do when you get there. If you can’t come in person on Sunday morning, here’s the link for the Zoom channel: Zoom Meeting ID 153 112 432, Passcode 684814, and here’s where you would go for the Facebook Live channel: facebook.com/gracevcf.
And for those of you looking for recent sermon videos, I’ll just drop those in right here from the last 2 Sundays:
Tithes and Offerings Online
THANKS for taking ownership in the life and ministry of Grace Vineyard! And thanks to all of you who are stepping into a lifestyle of generosity with your tithes and offerings. It really does take all of us doing our part with the income God has entrusted to us for His church. If you’d like to give your tithe or offering online, click the donate button below.
I’m off to the mountains now. Have a great weekend!!
With love and blessings,
Ron Ohst
