Barefoot Sunday On September 26th, we had our second annual Barefoot Sunday. We asked the people of The Grove to wear their best shoes and to leave barefoot, all to help someone in need and to help raise awareness of the poverty that much of the world faces. This story is about Carlene who ended up donating 80 pairs of her own shoes!

White as Snow Sunday, May 24th, Palmer spoke about our sins being made white as snow from Psalm 51. Meanwhile, two artists painted words (different types of sins) on two crosses on either side of the stage. Afterwards, people were invited to come forward, take communion, and symbolize their sins being washed white by painting over the top of the red words of sin.

Land Campaign Steve Schiff is back. After his last video, with his wife, Brittney, helped raise awareness at The Grove (Chandler, AZ) of the need for a front entrance sign, this video demonstrates how difficult it can be to turn into our current entrance. Ultimately we were trying to raise money to purchase land adjacent to us, which would allow a second entrance from another street (which we eventually purchased! woohoo!). The video also was a spoof of sorts from the hit show on Fox, "24"

Conversation with Kindergartners. Periodically we like to check in with some of our Kindergartners and get their perspective on life. This past Mother's Day we asked them what they loved most about their mom, and what THEY would do if THEY were a mom. Check it out!

Focus On Worship. It can become easy sometimes to focus on the wrong things during worship on Sundays... the band leader, the music, the lights, etc... On this particular Sunday at The Grove, the band led some music from the back of the auditorium, in an effort to "re-focus" our worship on Christ. This video set up that moment.
