The Grove Sunday Bulletin
On Sunday mornings, we gather together at 10:00am for a time of worship that involves singing together, preaching God's Word, and a time of remembrance through communion. The gathering of the church is not limited to our four walls. If you can’t join us in person, we’d love for you to tune in online!
Backpack & Supply Drive
We are excited to bring back this opportunity to serve our community in a very tangible way. Whether you are able to donate supplies, make a monetary donation for us to shop, or would prefer to give your time, we appreciate your generosity! Volunteers can sign up for our packing night on Tuesday, August 4th at 5:30pm, or sign up to help on the day of the event.
At The Grove, we want to continue growing as a church that truly prioritizes prayer. We are excited to share that we have officially launched the Prayer Page — a private, password-protected space on our website where our church family can share prayer requests, pray for one another, and stay connected to the needs within our community.
When submitting a request, you can choose to share it church-wide on the Prayer Page or keep it confidentially shared only with our pastors and prayer team. We hope this will be a safe and caring space where we can faithfully support one another in prayer.
To access the prayer page, please email connect@grovechurch.net and we will reply as soon as we are able with the link and password. We also invite you to join our Prayer Team each Wednesday at 7:00 PM as we gather to pray for our church, community, and beyond.
You can submit a prayer request (or a praise!) here:
