Grace Community Services Honors Joyce Davison

Thirty years ago, Joyce Davison had a simple idea: if someone was hungry, isolated, or in need of hope, Grace Church could be a place of welcome. That single act of compassion became Grace Community Services, transforming countless lives and inspiring generations of volunteers to serve their neighbors with dignity and love.

This October, we invite you to celebrate Joyce's extraordinary legacy and thank the woman whose vision created a community that continues to change lives every day. Together, we'll share stories, honor Joyce's remarkable leadership, and launch the Joyce Davison Legacy Fund to ensure her spirit of compassionate service continues for generations to come.

The greatest way to honor Joyce is to carry her vision forward. We hope you'll join us for an unforgettable evening as we celebrate the past, invest in the future, and begin writing the next chapter of Grace Community Services—together.
