At Grace UMC, we give people the opportunity to express prayer support for those who have lost loved ones and to honor those who are appreciated. Memorial or honorary gifts may be received at any time. They will be acknowledged in the monthly newsletter, and notification will be sent to an appropriate person related to the one remembered or honored.

Gifts should be made to Grace United Methodist Church with information clearly stating the name of the fund and the person(s) to be remembered or honored. Here are the funds of Grace United Methodist Church available for memorial or honorary gifts:
