The most welcoming family-filled house of worship I could ever have asked for ...
Very beautiful historic chapel. Home to a welcoming church community, a vivacious younger congregation with lots of kids running around, and good pastors with sound Bible teaching. They serve bagels after the service, but get there quickly because they disappear fast. Kids go to the service with their parents, stay through a few songs and a children's sermon, and are escorted to Sunday school from there. The music is lovely, incorporating more contemporary Christian music and favorite hymns with a modern twist. Communion is done with congregants walking by row to the front where they are handed the sacraments and reminded of their meaning. Gluten free bread is offered and wine and grape juice are both served. It can sometimes feel uncomfortable visiting churches that are not your own. Grace Church did not feel that way at all. It is a lovely church in every way. (Though, I can hardly claim to be an expert, as I've only been there once)
Gospel centered message--great staff with great kids programming
Great people
