Bless. Belong. Believe. Bloom.
42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet […]
This post was written on June 6th, 2021. Good afternoon Grafites! TL/DR: In accordance with Minneapolis dropping their mask mandate this week, the LT proposes that masks are optional during Sunday Services, encouraged for those who are not yet fully vaccinated, and still welcomed on anyone who feels more comfortable worshiping Jesus with other people […]
This response was created May 14, 2021. While the call from Jesus, our King, to both love God and love others and make disciples as we go doesn’t change, the world around us does.

The Summer of 2020 is going to go down in our memories as a year like no other. Grafted’s response to COVID-19 put us in a position where we were no longer meeting every week in order to share in the symbolic meal we call Communion. We did gather 3 different times to participate in […]
It is no suprise to anyone to hear that 2020 has been an incredibly rough year. From wildfires in the eastern States and Australia to fires on the streets of Minneapolis, from murder hornets to devastating hurricanes… and throughout all of it we have had a global health crisis caused by the novel corona virus […]
Well, I must say that this spring has not been the spring I thought it was going to be. I thought we were going to be looking into our Constitution together (which is a few years old and in need of tweaking). I was looking forward to gathering each Sunday to worship with all of […]
I am not sure why I feel the need to write this post; and we are in a weird time in history when simple truths need to be repeated. We live in a time where so many people have so many different misfortunes. Financial, emotional, psychological, social, relational… the list goes on and on. In […]
