WELCOME TO GRACE CHURCH
Are you looking for a church where people are caring and friendly? Where Bible-based preaching speaks to your everyday life? Where you find positive encouragement? Where children and youth meet Jesus as a friend? Where there is quality nursery care? If so, Grace is the place!
We are a vibrant and growing church, striving to incorporate our love for God into everything we do. Grace is a family of many families, caring for and sharing with one another in every way we can.
We join together for worship, study, and fellowship. Our goal is to make disciples for Jesus Christ with the purpose that we be sent forth as witnesses of God’s love to others.
Our prayer is that as you join in worship you will feel the presence of the Holy Spirit, and that as you leave you will feel the love of Christ go with you.
CHURCH LOCATION
Grace United Methodist Church is located on the east side of Franklin, IN. The Church is on Highway 44 one mile west of the I-65 interchange. This location on the edge of Franklin gives us the convenience of the city with seven acres of ground for growth. The parsonage is at the northwest corner of the grounds and adjacent to other homes in the area.
