Grace is not a church where the pastoral staff does all the ministry while the church watches.  Instead, we believe strongly that every believer is uniquely gifted by God to be involved in doing ministry.  That is how we all grow to maturity in Christ (see Ephesians 4:11-16)


Because of this, everyone is strongly encouraged to find a ministry where they can be a part of helping people begin and grow in a relationship with Christ.  Everyone, regardless of age or skill, can find a place to serve the Lord!


There is much ministry to do at Grace Church as we reach and grow the children & adults God has brought here.  We also strive to be a part of what God is doing in our community and our world.


Scan the list below of the many Grace Ministry Groups of which you can be a part.  Some groups provide training, when required.  Some groups are just now developing.
