Scrip Fundraiser
​
Scrip is a fundraising program. Grace Lutheran uses Scrip to support the Preschool. Using Scrip is like using gift cards. You purchase the card from our Scrip coordinator Cheryl Doss. The Scrip cards come in different denominations and can be purchased for just about anything you will spend money on such as dining out, gas, car rental, hotels, home improvement, clothing, etc. Many different retailers participate in this program. The best part is that is cost you absolutely NOTHING! Cheryl has a table set up every Sunday during Fellowship time. She keeps some popular items on hand and takes orders once a month. The funds to support the school add up fast. Next time you have a home improvement project, are going on vacation, or just need to take care of everyday expenses, plan ahead and use Scrip and put your money to a good cause at the same time!
Grace Community Meal Donations
​
Grace Community Meals can use your donations to fill our pantry. Every Thursday night, people from our community gather at Grace to share in fellowship and a meal. The meal is free and is provided in part by our member’s support through food and monetary donations. The Grace Community Meal Pantry is located in the Fellowship hall every Sunday to accept any food donations. Monetary donations can be given directly to Tim or Althea Barnes. Much of the food purchased is done through Gordon Food Service, so why not purchase a gift card through Scrip for GFS and support our preschool at the same time!
