This Week @ Grace 
Sunday
  • Sunday Morning we will continue to offer online worship.  We will also add “Eucharist under the Tent” for groups of 25 or fewer.  Clergy and staff will coordinate to rotate this ‘tent worship’ for various groups and members. We will also offer “Drive Through Communion” so that anyone may drive-through for a time of prayer, blessing and to receive a home Eucharist kit.  (Subject to weather cancellation; notification via email by 9 a.m.)

During June – and until further notice – Grace Church will be experimenting with some additional ways for us to gather, as safely as possible, as the Body of Christ. These opportunities are in accordance with guidelines from public health officials and our bishop. Further, they have been vetted by your Vestry. Please know that there is risk every time you leave your house…and every household has to make the best decisions for them about how to participate. There is no “right or wrong” about how to re-gather; we trust the Holy Spirit will help you discern what is safest and best for you. Read More

The church is open T-TH from 9:00-1:00 for private prayer.  Guidance is posted about how we are sanitizing that space on a daily basis.

Use of our bulding is restricted due to public health concerns.  Please contact us for more information

Sunday Forum Topic

​ "Crying Out to God" - Join us at 9:15 as we remember our tradition's gift of lament, encouragement to cry-out to God when other words fail us.  We'll look at some communal lament Psalms and snippets from the Book of Lamentation to encourage our own prayers of lament during this painful time.

Our Food Pantry, located at the back of the church off Miller St., is open M-F from 10-11 am. We are abiding by physical distancing, mask-wearing and other guidelines to minimize risk and keep people fed.

A Prayer for the Human Family
O God, you made us in your own image and redeemed us through Jesus your Son: Look with compassion on the whole human family; take away the arrogance and hatred which infect our hearts; break down the walls that separate us; unite us in bonds of love; and work through our struggle and confusion to accomplish your purposes on earth; that, in your good time, all nations and races may serve you in harmony around your heavenly throne; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
