GraceWay invites Pleasanton to its 150th-anniversary gathering Sunday

GraceWay Church is inviting the Pleasanton community to mark its 150th anniversary Sunday, Oct. 11, with an afternoon gathering at its Quarry Lane location.

The celebration runs from 2 to 3:30 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time at 1183-B Quarry Lane. The church’s invitation describes a program of music, shared memories and a message, followed by refreshments and conversation.

That afternoon start is separate from the regular Sunday worship gathering. The church calendar lists worship from 10 to 11:15 a.m., then the anniversary program at 2 p.m.

The milestone has also been recognized downtown. Museum on Main hosted a congregation-curated anniversary exhibit from Sept. 16 through Oct. 3, according to its exhibit listing. That display has ended; Sunday’s gathering is the upcoming opportunity to join the commemoration.

For event details or questions before attending, consult the church’s anniversary page or call 925-846-4436.
