The auditorium of Grace Baptist Church will be undergoing some updates to the lighting and sound systems in the next few weeks. While we are excited for these needed updates, the contractor’s schedule has necessitated some revisions to our own Fine Arts Calendar. The GCS Christmas Concert originally scheduled for December 5th has been rescheduled for December 12th. We believe that the auditorium will be completed and ready for use by that time. If, for some reason, the auditorium is still not completed by December 12th, we will still have the concert on that evening but will move the location to the Family Life Center gymnasium.

The Christmas instrumental recitals scheduled for December 12th have been moved to December 16th. Studio teachers will reach out to you with additional information about those recitals.
Thank you for your understanding in these calendar adjustments.

You’re invited to join us as we pray for our country. This evening will be led by Dr. Steve Pettit, the president of Palmetto Family Council.
