Bishop Dan Schwerin preaching.

Please join the Bishop as we welcome and celebrate the ministry of Rev. Dr. Hwa-Young Chong as the new District Superintendent of the Prairie North District. The Bishop will bring the message as we gather to sing, pray, hear the Word and break bread together in the Spirit of Christ.

A light supper will be served following the service, provided by the people of Grace UMC.

You are welcome to bring a note, a card, or a picture that will tell DS Hwa-Young something about you. DS Hwa-Young would love to get to know you more!

All are welcome!
