| Missions |
Grace has a strong emphasis on missions-worldwide and at home! Missionary families and projects are supported monthly by the offerings of the Grace Family. Mission’s Days are scheduled throughout the year to meet new missionaries, become more acquainted with veteran missionaries, and focus on what Grace as a church and we as individuals can do for world missions.
We also offer opportunities to experience missions via short-term projects. Recent trips include a June 2007 trip to Vancouver, B.C. to serve the First Nations people and a Family Mission Trip to Doctor Arroyo, Mexico in June 2008 led by Colin Errington.

MEET KAREN WERTH
In 1973, Ms. Karen Werth was approved as a missionary to INDONESIA and has served as our representative since that time.
Karen has served in many areas. She has held workshops to instruct teachers, guided ladies’ ministries, led Vacation Bible Schools, taught Sunday School classes, prepared visuals for children’s ministries, and taught classes in an Indonesian Bible College.
In November of 2007, Karen wrote of an opportunity to provide Bibles for all Junior High students on the island of Nias. This huge project involved getting 20,000 Bibles printed and transported to the island.
Karen writes: "In January 2009, 19,000 Bibles were distributed to Junior High students in southern Nias. Since July of 2008, a grand total of 49,000 Bibles were given out to students from 214 different Junior High schools through the entire island."
