Announcements & Upcoming Events
Parish Group Takeover | It's time to get this one on the calendar! We’re having our next Parish Group Takeover on Friday February 28th, from 6:30-8pm. We tried to do this last year and decided to push it due to the holidays so that more people could come. This one will be extra fun because we’ll be on our home turf! We’re going to host it in the gym at Grace + Peace. Grab some food on your way in, and bring the family along with your favorite board games, card games, party games, etc. We’ll have a couple hours for a fun church family game night. As usual, no agenda, just some good connection and time for games together. If you have any questions, you can reach out to Avery (avery@graceandpeaceaustin.com).
Ash Wednesday Services | Join us on Wednesday, March 5th at 12:15pm or 6pm in the sanctuary for our Ash Wednesday services. These services are intimate gatherings that begin the liturgical season of Lent. They will be short services (30 minutes total) with a few songs, a short homily, and end with the imposition of ashes. See you there! There will be no childcare provided for either service, but children are encouraged to join.
Women’s Retreat | Save the date! Our annual Women's Retreat is happening April 26-27, 2025 at Summer's Mill Retreat Center in Belton, TX. Summer's Mill is a short drive from central Austin, but offers a slower pace, star gazing, and the beautiful Salado River. This time away provides opportunity for connection and reflection in an unhurried environment. We would love your company!
Spring Sunday School | Sunday School began Sunday, February 2nd. We will have two 6-week sessions, the first ending on March 9th, and the second picking back up on March 30th, taking a week off on April 20th for Easter, and ending on May 11th.
