On April 23, 2023, Earth Day, Grace members gathered to help with the Bloomfield Township-wide clean up at Clark’s Pond, Bloomfield. The pond, behind Bloomfield Middle School, was impacted by Hurricane Ida when trash flooded the area, as were many Grace members and our own church basement. Grace members joined the community with volunteers Jody and Pat Walsh; Denarra Simmons; Werner Heck; Heather, Julia, and Grace Kennedy; and Emily and Christian Rishel.
