The mission of Grace Church is to worship God, proclaim Christ as Savior, encourage growth in Christ as Lord; fellowship together, and care for those in need.

PHILOSOPHY OF MINISTRY

Prayer is the underlying foundation for all of our ministries.

Worship should be culturally relevant while remaining biblically sound.

The church exists to minister to the needs of our congregation and to reach out to persons who are not yet a part of our fellowship.

We are sensitive to the needs of "seekers" in all of our activities and decisions.

Quality and excellence honor God and inspire people.

The proclamation of the gospel must be linked with opportunities for persons to respond in significant and meaningful ways.

Acceptance of Christ as Savior must be followed by involvement in discipleship ministries where persons learn to honor Jesus as Lord in all areas of their lives.

Lives are best transformed in small groups.

Church leaders are to train, enable, empower, and motivate people to be in ministry that utilizes their spiritual gifts.

Caregiving is the responsibility of the entire church family and is best accomplished through networks of loving, caring relationships.

Involvement in missions outreach, both locally and around the world, is imperative to our calling as individual Christians and as the church.

Time is a valuable resource for people today, and it must be respected.
