OWLS (Older and Wiser Lutherans)

The OWLS celebrate Mardi Gras

If you're 50+years old and like people, you are qualified to join in the fun of OWLS.   We're a group of individuals who like to get together, enjoy the company of others and build relationships. We get together once a month either for lunch and a program in Café Grace, or we go on a fun-filled outing. We also participate in various service projects for church and the community. Bring along a friend! One of our new friends who joined us for an outings said, "The people at Grace made us feel like we knew them for a long time."
