At Grace, we believe God’s heart is for lost people. Whether it’s across-the-street outreach, across the border or across an ocean, we want to equip and empower you to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.
We become equipped to minister through events like Gospel Conversations Training and prayer gatherings, and through designated funds for missions. When we Go, we encounter God and entrust our lives to Him in new ways. If you have questions about Mobilization, please email mobilization@grace360.org.
Jesus commanded His disciples to “go” out into the world to preach the Gospel, which points us to the places of deepest darkness (Matthew 28:18-20). In these places, God has led us to specific places of focus for the greatest impact for His Kingdom. Based on this leading, we currently mobilize to our City, the Americas and the Nations (the Acts 1:8 Model).
Our “Jerusalem” is the greater Austin area, and we are proud to partner with ministries in and around the city that share Christ’s love and profound support to people in need. Opportunities often arise to volunteer with these ministries, and Grace facilitates seasonal events to support their initiatives including diaper drives, homelessness workshops and more.
Service Opportunities: ADRN
Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN) is an organization that helps people during times of disaster, whether personal in scale or community-wide. Their goal is to bring hope into crisis and be the hands and feet of Jesus to others. There are two upcoming ADRN events at Grace where you can get involved.
ADRN Hygiene Kits
Sunday, Oct. 6
Please call the church if you need a bag this week:
(512) 345-7840
Help your neighbors in need! This Sunday, Oct. 6, Austin Disaster Relief Network will be in our Grace lobby handing out drawstring bags. Inside each bag will be a checklist with needed hygiene items to help those displaced by disaster. Please shop over the following week and return your bag, filled up, the following Sunday, Oct. 13. This is a small way you can be the hands and feet of Christ.
Stock the Thrift Store
Sunday, Oct. 13
Help stock the Austin Disaster Relief Network Hope Thrift Store with everything from furniture to kitchen and household items, home decor, clothing and shoes. An ADRN trailer will be set up in the Grace Jollyville parking lot on Sunday, Oct. 13 to receive your donations before, during, and after services. Proceeds from the thrift store are instrumental in helping ADRN support people in crisis. Please start looking around your home now to see what you can bring to help!
“Judea (Samaria)” for Grace means North, Central and South America, where regional and short-term missions and ministry partnerships align to mobilize for the Gospel in closer proximity to our home church.
We mobilize to “the farthest reaches of the Earth” through the support of 89 missionaries (making up 50 missionary units) sent out from Grace Covenant Church and through short-term mission trips to regions of Europe, Africa, and Asia.
