"OVERFLOW" is the new name/philosophy of our youth group at Grace. There is an intentional biblical meaning behind the name, taken from Psalm 23:5 - My cup overflows with blessings. Our hope is that the time spent at church, playing games and taking trips together will be a time of filling up the hearts of our students with God's love and grace. We so desire to see it overflow into every aspect of their lives! DeepEnd is the name of our Wednesday night meetings where we will be diving deeper into the concepts we learn about on Sundays.

You may have seen some of the awesome hats around with the new Overflow logo on it, which can be purchased for $10 to support the ministry. We are also selling awesome travel coffee mugs and stainless steel water bottles with the Overflow logo for $15.

Men of Grace,

We all have special women in our lives, wifes, daughters, mothers, etc... and no doubt we think about them all the time. However, they love to know that they are being thought of and the only way to communicate that is to do something thoughtful and out of the ordinary.

So, you are going to bring them flowers out of the blue on July 23rd. This is not connected to any holliday or anything, its just because YOU CARE! (And its a fundraiser to help high schoolers earn money to go to camp). 

Order one of three bouquets by noon on Friday the 16th, pay for the flowers online, and then after work (4-6:30pm) pick up your flowers at Grace Fellowship Church on your way home on the 23rd. We’ll send you are reminder email a day before to remember to pick them up. Your lady will love it!

Jenn Zeulner (Grace High School pastor Ryan Zeulner's wife) had a life changing experience 10 years ago and she has shared her incredible story with us...

"As a 20 year old I was looking for something more than just the average college lifestyle. I had a desire to serve the Lord and experience an adventure. So on a whim I decided to drop everything one summer and serve God in order to find some meaning and purpose in my life. With only a 2 week notice, I left Orange County to go and serve at a Young Life camp in Colorado.

The first week there I stood up and told everyone, “I don’t know why I’m here, but I know we are all here for a reason.”

I expected God to move.

A week later, while cleaning a drain, a bottle of drain opener exploded in my face causing the sulfuric acid to create 2nd and 3rd degree burns to my eyes, face, neck and arm.

Immediately I was transformed." Read More...

We recently sat down with Ryan Zeulner (Grace High School Pastor) and his wife Jenn to talk about their experience so far at Grace. Ryan joined the Grace staff as the High School pastor in February of this year and we would like to introduce them to you.

Grace: How long have you been at Grace

Ryan: We have been at Grace for a little over two months now, but have wanted to be here for well over a year!

Grace: Why did you come to Grace?

Ryan: We came to Grace for the community, the solid family atmosphere and the opportunity to serve the high school students and their family. It is such a pleasure for us to be at a place where we already have so many friends even though we are so new. Read More...
