Do you like Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns, Brooke Ligertwood, Michael W. Smith, Brandon Lake, Elevation Worship? Do you listen to The Message on SiriusXM? Do you like Contemporary Christian Music but unable to hear enough of it?
Come join us here at Grace United Methodist Church in Centre Hall on the 3rd Sunday (usually) of every month. Our service has the same components as our Traditional Service, with only the
music changing.
Our band Glorified has been providing the music for 20 years. You’ll find the service to be uplifting, and you might walk away humming a song or two.
Occasionally we do change what Sunday is contemporary, so please call the office a couple weeks in advance to confirm. “Perhaps creation longs to have the words to sing, but this joy is
mine. With a thousand hallelujahs, we magnify your name.” as written by Scott and Brooke Ligertwood and Phil Wickham for the song “A Thousand Hallelujahs.” Preview Glorified via the video below...

Grace is looking for volunteers to assist with the Young Children’s Sunday School sessions that are held during the regular church service. Please contact Mindy Gensimore if you would like to assist or have questions, she will be glad to help you. Thank you!

United Methodist Home For Children - Now operating as “Everstand”
Located in Mechanicsburg, PA
For over 90 years, UMCH has provided a caring environment for Central Pennsylvania’ children in need.
Originally a home for orphans, today the Home is a refuge for children who are the victims of a negative social environment. Each year, UMHC provides residential treatment for scores of children on our beautiful 56-acre campus in Cumberland County. Children are referred to the Home primarily by county children and youth agencies and family courts. For a variety of reasons these children and youth are unable to live with their families or in community foster care placements.
We have revamped our “Category of the Month” Campaign to be more specific. We are asking for these specific donations OR monetary donations so that we can purchase items in bulk at a lower cost. Please make sure your checks/envelopes specify “OCC Donation” before placing in the offering plate or mailing to the church. We will continue to accept other items but are specifically highlighting these needs.
NOTE: All donations accepted regardless of the monthly category. Donation Box is located inside the back entrance door (bottom of steps). Reminder – NO used items, liquids or soap, food/seeds, weapons or scary/war related items.
