Mission Statement
We are a welcoming and diverse community of faith that seeks to follow the way of
Jesus Christ by serving and worshiping God.
Our beliefs:
- Worshiping in the love of Christ’s teachings and the Episcopal tradition reveals God more clearly so that we understand His call to us and live a life of faith.
- Every spiritual journey is unique and nurtured by curiosity about God and the
nature of faith. - We show our love of Jesus through outreach to the world around us.
- Stewardship, the nurturing of our earth and the sharing of our resources and
gifts, is an essential part of who we are. - An awareness of critical issues inspires us to align ourselves with the
teachings of Jesus. - Opportunities for fellowship strengthen the bonds of a community.
- Christian education at all ages deepens our relationship with God.

I was baptized and confirmed at Grace Church in 1943.
I am glad you are still going strong.

I was also baptized and confirmed at Grace Church in the 1940s. Fr Albert Van Duzer was our much loved Rector during this time. After recently going through a lengthy discernment process we have happily found our new Rector and have enthusiastic welcomed Fr Bob Fitzpatrick and his wife Cathy.
I wish you all the best in your search.
Your last name sounds familiar to me. Wonder if we might have known one another back then…..
