Big Changes Ahead: Updates on My Classes, Retreats, and What’s Next for The Brechbills!
Hello, Crafty Friends—
I wanted to take a moment to share an important update about my classes, retreats, and how I’ll be running Sweet Grace Ministries as life takes an exciting new turn.
To stay in the loop- I highly encourage you to join my MAILING LIST!! You’ll receive all the details on classes/events/specials and when/where I’m hosting the stampin’ fun!
I’d also encourage you to subscribe to my blog. I’m going to try and post pretty regularly and if you subscribe, you’ll receive each post as an email and you’ll never miss a thing!

What’s Changing (and What’s Not)
As many of you know, things are moving quickly with my husband’s retirement. After a lot of reflection (and some bittersweet conversations), our son has decided not to continue the family farm. So, we’re making plans for the next season of our lives—and spending more time in our happy place: Utah.
That means we’ll be living there for a few months this winter, which brings some big changes for my in-person stamping classes here in Pennsylvania.
After 23 years of hosting classes in my home studio, it’s hard to say this—but I’ll be canceling my January and February classes. Unless, of course, you want to come to Utah and stamp with me! I’d absolutely love that.
But don’t worry—I’m not retiring from Stampin’ Up! I’ll still be hosting LIVE events, videos, special classes, and retreats. As we transition through 2026, I’ll simply be scaling back my in-person offerings in PA until we return in the spring.
Upcoming Class Dates + Calendar Changes
Here’s what’s coming up for classes:
- October 21 – 10am and 6pm (normal schedule)
- November 4 – 10am and 6pm (adjusted for my vacation)
- December 9 – 10am and 6pm (moved up for Christmas)
- March 3 – 10am and 6pm (I’ll be back in town!)
And mark your calendars—I’ll be hosting my March 3rd class in my studio while I’m in PA for retreats. I hope you can join me for some creative fun and connection.
What’s Next for Sweet Grace Ministries + Our Crafting Community
While my business will look a little different from afar, I’m excited to explore new ways to stay connected—of course, my LIVE videos continue Wednesdays at 10am ET, ZINGO will be a staple and maybe even a Zoom craft-along in our future?
You can still place orders anytime, either through your online account or by sending me a message and I’ll take care of you personally.
I’m still here. Still creating. Still cheering you on.
So don’t go anywhere—our community is growing, even if it looks a little different for a season.
I will stil be hosting a fundraiser event in Chambersburg, PA (and to go) for Sweet Grace Ministies on April 11th 2026.
And of course, the need for cards continues always! If you are interested in creating cards for Sweet Grace, please contact me for instructions/requirments.
I do ask that you do NOT send cards to me or drop cards off at my house. We will be forwarding our mail and I don’t want cards coming to Utah. You can send/drop off directly to the ministry at 77 Horst Ave. Chambersburg, PA 17201.
If you have any questions, please reach out….I’m gonna need you all!
With love and gratitude,
Jody
