Grace House proudly presents four new ministries starting on Monday, September 9:

  1. Random Acts of Kindness: A stealth group of individuals who will go around campus simply doing kind things. Our first project will be writing notes of encouragement and passing them out on Friday at Fresh Check!
  2. #Wellgowithyou: This is a group of caring protective individuals who not only will accompany our Trans friends to the bathroom; they will also accompany all friends (old and new) to the counseling center, to the doctor, to court, to pretty much wherever. We'll go with you. Period. No questions asked. Because no one should have to go at life alone. 
  3. Faculty Staff Support Groups: Depending on the interest, we'd like to start an Elder Care/Sandwich Generation support group, a Grief & Loss support group, a Working Moms Support Group, or anything else that may bubble up and currently doesn't exist anywhere on campus. If you're faculty or staff and have been looking for a support group, click the link below and let's get one started!
  4. Weekend Food Pantry: On Thursdays during Grace Coffee House (1-6pm) and on Fridays (3-5pm), we will have our food pantry open. Just come in, grab a bag, and go! Some days, we have macaroni & cheese and ramen; other days we may have a home-cooked meal! If you are looking for something other than leftover dining hall food for the weekend, click the link below and we will let you know what's cooking for the week!

NOTE: YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE CHRISTIAN/LUTHERAN/MENNONITE/EPISCOPALIAN to join a ministry. Just sign up for one using the link below!
