Jump Start! New to Grace Church? We’re so excited about that! Not sure where to start? Looking for a way to meet others and hear more about Grace? We’d love to meet you, hear more about your story and how we can come alongside you in what God is doing in your life!

Join us at “Jump Start” in the MOVE room (just off the Family Lobby) following the first service.

We’ll celebrate and honor families who are choosing to dedicate their child(ren) to the Lord during our 9:00 & 10:45 Sunday gatherings on October 13.

Several months ago, we had a special meeting and voted to change the way we approach “membership” at Grace Church to better align with our vision of “becoming a community of people walking alonside one another to find Hope and Life in Jesus.” On Sunday, September 22, during both services you will have the opportunity to “sgn on” to being part of our Covenant Community for the 2024/25 ministry year. Those who confirm their commitment to our Covenant Community can vote on the proposed budget and affirm our Elders in a short meeting following both services. If you are unable to be present at the services, you may use the links below to review and commit to the Covenant, and vote on the budget and elders prior to end of day on Sunday, September 22.

This April, we will launch a partnership with CarePortal: a technology that connects people who see the physical needs of our community with people at the church who can meet those needs. If you are interested in becoming involved in this new serving opportunity, there will be a training on April 7th after the second service in room 100.

We will be meeting at Grace Church and loading into youth leaders cars and driving to the Mall Of America.
