This is a great opportunity for men to get away from their day to day lives by spending some time surrounded by nature, enjoying fellowship with others, and renewing their devotion to the Lord.
We will be staying at the Westminister Woods Camp in Fall River, KS. Check out the registration page below for more information.
Taco ‘bout a great way to support our youth!
This summer our 7th through 12th graders are going to camp where they will be encouraged to grow in their relationship with Jesus and live a life of service offered to him! On May 4th after both services, the youth will be serving a taco lunch in request for donations to help them get to camp. In other words, the students have made May 4th's lunch plans easy for you! Come to the activity center and support the youth, enjoy some good tacos, and spend some time in fellowship with others at our church.
We hold child dedications as a way for parents to express their commitment to raising their child according to Scripture and for the church to proclaim our support and partnership. We will have child dedications during both Sunday morning services on May 11th, 2025. The registration deadline is May 9th. Learn more here.
There’s nothing quite like the experience of summer camp! This year, we're excited to take our 3rd through 6th graders back to Westminster Woods. Mark your calendars for these unforgettable dates:
3rd and 4th Grade: June 3rd - June 6th
5th and 6th Grade: June 9th - June 13th
Registration is open now and will remain available until the week before camp begins. To avoid late fees, be sure to register by April 2nd!
Every student should experience camp—it’s a must! Camp is an exciting adventure that breaks away from the everyday routine and dives into a life-changing environment centered on building a deeper relationship with Christ. During this unforgettable week, we’ll serve local communities around Fort Worth and take part in meaningful ministry. It’s the best week of the year to strengthen friendships, make new ones, and grow closer to Christ in ways you never imagined!
It is $414 per person. Fundraising opportunities and scholarships are available.

"Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; He has risen!"
Luke 24:5-6
The greatest day in history was the day Jesus Christ rose from the grave, conquering sin and death so that we might have eternal life! Come celebrate the life, death, and resurrection of our Savior this Easter. Join us for one of our two services on April 20th at 9 & 10:45 am as we worship, rejoice, and reflect on the hope and victory we have in Jesus!

Passion Thursday Service
Over two thousand years ago, Jesus faced the hardest night of His life. He sat with His closest friends, shared a final meal, and humbly washed their feet—knowing betrayal, suffering, and the cross were just hours away. In those moments, how did He respond? And why does it still matter to us today?
Join us as we step into the story, reflecting on the key moments leading up to the cross and resurrection. Through worship, prayer, and communion we’ll pause to remember the depth of His love and the power of His sacrifice.
Come as you are, and leave with a renewed heart as we prepare for Easter together. Join us on April 17th at 6:30 pm

The goal of this day is to build fellowship with those beside you and show love to those around you while meeting some worldly needs in our community.
After a short send-off service at Grace, we will have the privilege to GO into the community to various sites to BE THE CHURCH. We will serve together on teams of volunteers from approximately 10 am-4 pm. Lunch will be provided and served at each site. Please pack your own allergy-friendly food if needed. We aim to bless the people or places where we serve, all while being relational with those beside us. The physical work is not more important than the spiritual work.
This event is open to anyone with a desire to offer service to God, including people who do not attend Grace. Each participant should be registered. Adjustments will be considered on an individual basis by the GCC Reach Local Council.

Big Serve is just around the corner, and that means it’s time to start identifying places where we can make a difference. We’re looking for individuals or places who could benefit from some hands-on help with a project or need a little extra support.

We will be accepting nominations through February 23rd, so take some time to think about those in need of assistance and submit your suggestions.
