Education/Youth

Grace is truly a “ministry for all ages”! We have a very active youth group and education program that we are very proud of.

Vacation Bible School

VBS is a week-long summer opportunity for the students from Grace, as well as the surrounding community, to gather for fun-filled evenings of games, music, and worship while learning about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. The week ends with the VBS students putting on a community program where they share and celebrate what they have learned.

Wednesday Release Time

Wednesday School Release Time runs from 2:00-2:45 from September through April. Grades 1-6 and 7-9 alternate weeks. Students ride the bus from Win-E-Mac to Grace, where students and teachers from various denominations in our community meet to dive deeper into their faith.

Due to the dismissal from school and bussing to and from Grace, student registration for Release Time will happen through paperwork at WEM.

Youth Group

The Youth Group at Grace includes students from grades 7 and up. Some of our youth group activities are listed below:

    • Fifth Quarter: our youth gather following a Friday evening sporting event for snacks, games, and fellowship.
    • Volunteering: our youth serves others by volunteering for “Feed My Starving Children”, Grace Food Shelf, fundraising by collecting and recycling cans, mission trips, and many other opportunities that become available throughout the year.
    • The WEM Community Youth Ministry is a group of students in the Winger, Erskine (including Grace), McIntosh, and Mentor areas. This group is for students in grades 7-12 from the surrounding towns who are interested in building a foundation of faith and enjoying fellowship with peers. Please support this ministry at our GoFundMe page.
