Parish Life

Our parish community is comprised of all ages, stations in life, and theological backgrounds. Our parishioners often speak of our congregation as a family, perhaps because we find nourishment here in both faith and friendship.

At Grace we are dedicated to offering advent party stimulating programs, lively spiritual formation events, and exciting outreach opportunities for all.

We encourage involvement in parish life by all members of our congregation and invite you to browse these pages for more information on where to begin.
