OUR VISION -LOVING GOD – LOVING PEOPLE

LOVING GOD - LOVING PEOPLE By obeying the Great Commandment and the Great Commission

 "Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. A second is equally important: 'Love your neighbor as yourself'" (Matthew 22:37-39 NLT).      

"Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit" Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19, 20 NLT).     

 Our Mission Statement

Our mission is REACH the lost, CONNECT believers together as family, help them GROW in their faith, SERVE with their gifts and SEND them out to impact their world for Christ.

Our Values

We value the Bible as the infallible Word of God and as the primary source for determining doctrine and how to live the Christian life.

We value prayer as vital, effective and real communion with God. 

We value the spiritual gifts God has given, enabling us to fulfill The Great Commission of sharing the Gospel throughout the world.

We value walking out this spiritual journey together through healthy relationships which provide for fellowship, encouragement and discipleship.

We value the unity of believers and honor other life-giving churches and individuals who love God.

We value the peace and joy available to all believers who pursue God and His plans.

We value being culturally relevant as a church while remaining committed to sound doctrine.

History

In 1992, a small group of believers began regular meetings in search of a greater, Spirit-led Christian life. After several months, Pastor Roger Olsen was asked to help pastor and establish the church. His commitment was for 6 months only, but the Lord had other plans and the church began to grow under Roger’s leadership. What began as a small gathering has now become a strong and growing local church with a regional impact.

What to Expect

On a Sunday morning you will be welcomed as you enter the front door into our coffee house-foyer. It is likely to be a little noisy with the sounds of music and friends sharing a cup of coffee and goodies. Help yourself!

Grace provides many opportunities for spiritual growth and social interaction for all ages through topic-oriented life groups, dynamic teen and children’s ministries. Many ministry opportunities are available at Grace including Youth and Worship Team ministries. You will be surprised at the size of the 200-seat sanctuary, (the service is also projected to the youth center and the upstairs conference room for overflow or convenience), large custom-built Children’s Church area, nurseries and other special rooms for various ages. The worship music at Grace is contemporary and the service itself is informal and very comfortable. When you visit, you will enjoy the Lord’s Presence, His Word and His people.

Because motives are important, our desire is that all that we do be a result of our love for God, love for people, the Church and commitment to God's Word. Therefore, the decision was made in early 2014 to no longer receive offerings during the worship service. Members are encouraged to give tithes and offerings by mail or by placing them in one of the giving stations before or after the service. In the following 18 months giving increased by 36%.

We are very excited about the future of Grace Church. Come grow with us!
