Grace or Community?


As I left a retreat Saturday, I saw this sign, did a double take and burst out laughing. For according to this sign grace is available on the right; community is available on the left; but both are not available at the same time. In a few judgmental communities, that may be true. But most of the time I have been able to find community AND grace amongst my friends; and this sign was actually abbreviating the names of two churches that were meeting on opposite sides of Brethren Woods Campground Saturday: Community Mennonite Church and Grace Fellowship.
