WHO WE ARE

What to Expect

All are welcome regardless of personal or religious background. GRACE Church is here for the convinced and the unconvinced, the lost, the found, the burned, bored, cynical, hurting, discouraged, depressed, and the spiritual. No matter where you are in the process, you’re invited to our community of stumbling  sinners.

Good news—God loves and saves sinners just like you and me! We want you to find Christ, grace, love, acceptance, guidance, encouragement, dignity, forgiveness, freedom, purpose, and hope.

When you need something, we’re here to help.
