- Lent Fasting | GCC
Lent Fasting Anthony Ochoa Want to know what the bible says? Download the guide LENT DESCRIPTION Lent is a 40-day season (not counting Sundays) leading up to Easter. It is a time to turn our hearts to God through (1) prayer, (2) repentance, and (3) spiritual renewal. We fast not to earn God's favor, but to remind ourselves that man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. It is an intentional submitting our bodies and souls to God, who alone can satisfy us. START Ash Wednesday (2.18.26) END The Saturday before Easter, Holy Saturday (4.4.26) LENGTH OF LENT 40 total days of fasting 46 calendar days (because Sundays are not fast days) WHAT WILL OUR ASH WEDNESDAY BE LIKE? ASH WEDNESDAY SERVICE Wednesday, February 18, 6:30 pm Our goal is to start this holy season with a somber service. There will be worship, teaching, and many interactive elements including communal prayer, Scripture reading, and other interactive elements. HOW TO FAST (TRADITIONAL PRACTICE) For centuries, Christians have fasted during Lent by limiting their food intake. The most common method today follows this structure: Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are special days of fasting. On only Ash Wednesday and Good Friday: Eat only one full meal for the day. You may also eat two smaller meals that together do not equal a full meal. No snacking between meals. No meat (fish is allowed). All Fridays during Lent are typically days of abstinence from meat, though full meals are allowed. Other weekdays (Mon–Sat): No required fasting, but many choose to limit or sacrifice something else as an act of devotion (caffeine/sugar/soda/processed snacks, social media, screen time, etc.) . Sundays are feast days and are never fast days. If at any point you start to ask, “What if I’m doing it wrong?!” Stop and remember this is about mercy and faith, not legalistic law keeping. For example: if you want to eat meat on Fridays still, that’s okay! Enjoy and pursue hunger for God in accordance with your faith, not what you think you “have to” do. CAN I FAST FROM SOMETHING OTHER THAN FOOD? While food is the traditional fast, some people may need to adjust due to health concerns or may choose to add other disciplines. Again, the call is to discipline ourselves to hunger for God, not to meticulously keep every possible rule. The goal is not to make ourselves miserable but to set ourselves toward crying out to God in an intentional way. HOW CAN I MAKE LENT MORE SIGNIFICANT Lent is not just about fasting—it is about turning to God. Consider adding activities to your routine during this season: Pray (consider using our prayer book Two of More ) Read Scripture (with others at times you usually do not) Write in a Journal (what God is teaching you) Worship (as a family or individually) Serve someone else (look for needs in the community or church)

(high school and up) Sunday, April 19 11:15 am | Grace Commons RSVP RSVP by the Friday before Next Steps Statement Of Faith Our Statement of Faith at GCC 1. We believe the sixty-six books of the Bible to be the only inspired, authoritative Word of God, inerrant in the original manuscripts. (2 Timothy 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21) 2. We believe that there is one God , the Creator, eternally existent in three Persons–Father, Son and Holy Spirit–each having the same essence and attributes. (2 Corinthians 13:14; Matthew 28:19) 3. We believe that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man in indivisible union. We believe in His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His substitutionary atonement through His shed blood, His death and bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His future bodily return in power and glory. (John 1:1,14; Philippians 2:6-8; 1 Timothy 3:16; Revelation 19:11-16; I Corinthians 15:1-8) 4. We believe the Holy Spirit convicts of sin, regenerates, indwells, baptizes and seals all believers at the moment of their salvation, filling them as they yield to Him with the goal of conforming them to the image of Christ. (Titus 3:5; 1 Corinthians 3:16, 12:13; Ephesians 1:13, 5:18) 5. We believe salvation is a gift of God received through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone and His sacrifice for sin. We believe that a person is justified by grace through faith apart from works and that all true believers have eternal life. Saving faith includes repentance, which is a change of mind about sin and the need for Jesus as Savior. (Ephesians 2:8-9; John 3:16; I John 5:10-13; Mark 1:15) 6. We believe that the true Church is composed of all such persons who through saving faith in Jesus Christ have been regenerated by the Holy Spirit and are united together in the Body of Christ of which He is the Head. (Colossians 1:18; Ephesians 1:22-23, 2:19-22) 7. We believe that water baptism and *Communion are ordinances to be observed by the Church during the present age. They are, however, not to be regarded as means of salvation. (Acts 8:12; 1 Corinthians 11:23-28) 8. We believe in the bodily resurrection of the dead, of the believer to everlasting glory in heaven with God and the unbeliever to judgment and everlasting conscious punishment in hell apart from God. (2 Thessalonians 1:9; Revelation 22:3-5, 20:15; Daniel 12:2) *Communion is open to all who have trusted Christ as Savior whether members of Grace or not and is observed on the first Sunday of each month.

- ADULT DISCIPLESHIP | GCC
Adult Discipleship Grace Discipleship Network ...that we may present everyone mature in Christ…rooted and built up in him and established in the faith... Colossians 1:28 & 2:7 At Grace Community Chapel, it is our conviction that discipleship engagement is essential to achieving a growing relationship with Jesus. With this in mind, we offer a network of independent and mutually reinforcing discipleship opportunities that are specifically dedicated to advancing spiritual growth in the context of church community and individual commitment. The Pathways Celebrations Sunday Morning Corporate Worship Celebrations include our Sunday morning corporate worship services. These services, which offer elements of both traditional and contemporary worship experiences, are primarily devoted to congregational singing and the expository teaching of God’s Word. SERVICE TIMES Classes Sunday Morning Adult Discipleship Opportunities Classes are identified by traditional Sunday morning arrangements that are generally larger in size and offer instruction and interaction specific to the Bible and other key topics of spiritual interest. CURRENT OFFERINGS Clusters Sunday and Midweek Adult Discipleship Opportunities As a hybrid of traditional Classes and Communities (small groups), Clusters offer a unique approach to intentional discipleship in which smaller collections of people (generally a maximum of 12-14) gather under a time-limited arrangement of 12-36 weeks depending on the focus of a particular Cluster. Clusters involve an interactive environment that typically requires some out-of-session assignments and a deeper level of engagement. The primary goals of Clusters include promoting personal and collective spiritual growth and equipping that is aimed at advancing discipleship influence. CURRENT OFFERINGS Collectives Midweek Adult Discipleship Opportunities Collectives, as defined by “a cooperative enterprise” (Oxford Dictionary) involve a group of people meeting together in the interests of a unified purpose. Collectives include midweek ministries of various sizes that involve individuals engaging in Bible or topical studies via live instruction or video, prayer and fellowship with the goal of advancing biblical application through individual and “collective” spiritual growth. SEE WHAT'S AVAILABLE Communities Small Group Adult Discipleship Opportunities Communities, which are otherwise known as small groups, represent more of the relational end of our adult discipleship ministry. Communities focus on some key areas such as study, prayer and fellowship, with an important component including the manner in which individuals engage in life together and care well for one another.

- OUTREACH | GCC
Outreach Ministry Get involved "You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored?" ~Jesus Outreach Strategy "What do you want me to do for you?" Jesus frequently led out with this question. As we approach our community, we look for areas of felt-need that we can address as a church. Where are we focused? "So that you may know that The Son of Man has the power to forgive sins ..." But He didn't stop there. Jesus always paired His physical blessings with His Spiritual power. We train our members to competently work the message of salvation into daily conversation. Sharing Jesus "...Pick up your bed and walk." The Kingdom is advancing in St. Charles County.

- PERSONAL DISCIPLESHIP | GCC
Personal Discipleship Where to Begin The process involved in achieving spiritual growth as a Christian can perhaps be accurately described through a simple phrase that is joined with the idea of Me Becoming More Like Jesus. Advancing spiritually in the direction of becoming more conformed to the image of Jesus involves an act of God’s grace that is aimed at our transformation in alignment with His purposes. However, this act of grace is also intended to function in coordination with our will and determined efforts as we engage in a life of surrender and consistent practices that are designed to further the cause of Christ in our lives. These practices are commonly referred to as spiritual disciplines. It may be helpful to consider spiritual disciplines in the context of athletes preparing for the Olympics. These individuals engage in consistent and determined training for many years so that they can be prepared to compete and win in their chosen events. If they fail to prepare properly, it is very likely that they will perform below the level of their hopes and expectations. As Christians, if our win involves increasing conformity to the image of Jesus, there are clearly things we must earnestly practice to achieve that goal. Common Spiritual Disciplines There are very exhaustive lists of spiritual disciplines that have been developed over time. While most of these lists have merit, they can also feel a bit overwhelming to many people as they try to imagine engaging in the breadth of these activities. So, for the purpose of challenging those within our church family to consider a more narrowly focused approach to the practice of spiritual disciplines, we have provided a prioritized list of the disciplines that are most commonly practiced.
