Our Church
Here at Grace United Methodist Church, we are all on a journey of faith. Some are just beginning, some are along the path a ways, and most of us are somewhere in between. We all have a common goal - to grow closer to Jesus. As disciples, we seek to share his love with a world in need by being the hands and feet and voice of Jesus.
Sunday Mornings
Worship at 9:00 am
Like most churches, there are sure to be things we don't do perfectly. As God's people a part of the Wesleyan tradition, we hope to grow in grace throughout our lives. If you come on Sunday, feel free to wear a dress or suit, or simply comes in a t-shirt and jeans. Come as you are. Our worship music is a mix of traditional hymns and contemporary songs.
If you're new, we'll try to not put you on the spot, but feel free to visit with our pastor or let us know if you need anything. We hope our words and actions convey that you are welcome, accepted, and loved. During our worship service we'll praise and thank God for through prayer and song. If folks have burdens or struggles, we'll also lift those up in prayer, and encourage persons to open up with one another (as they're comfortable) throughout the morning. At about 9:15 we offer Children's Church to those in preschool through sixth grade.
​
Sunday morning is an opportunity to gather together, to worship together, to rejoice and weep together, to receive forgiveness and extend grace together, to learn and be challenged together, and to experience the grace of God together, to be shaped into faithful disciples of Jesus, together.
​
You are also invited and encouraged to come to our Adult Sunday School class at 8:oo am and to join us in Fellowship Hall after worship to enjoy a time of connecting and getting to know one another.

"Renewed in Mercy" - Lent 2026 - February 18 - March 22, 2026
​
The Lenten journey may seem overly familiar. Indeed, we have been here before. There is comfort in the familiar. Many of the rituals and practices of this season are comfortable. They give us a sense of place, like being home again. This can be a good starting place for the season, an invitation to walk the paths we have walked before. We gather once again as the community of faith. The Lenten journey and our discipleship path encourage us to grow, to go deeper, to climb higher, to reach further than we may have before. Lent is a time of introspection, but also a call to action as we seek to be the pilgrim people of God, seeking God’s kingdom and shaping God’s kin-dom in worship and in service. This Lent, we invite you to experience the renewal that comes from God’s never-ending mercy and then to walk with our Lord on a journey to new life.
​
"A Clean Heart" - February 18 - 6 PM - In Psalm 51, David reminds us that we are interconnected, that our actions and decisions affect the community too. Paul also makes this point in 2nd Corinthians. In the season of Lent, we are invited to walk the road that leads to new life – together committing to living with a clean heart and a right spirit within us and our community.
​
"Mercy on the Wilderness Road" - February 22 - At the end of his forty days, Jesus was a prime target for temptation. We find ourselves here to – and not after 40 days. We get down or tired or… and we don’t always recognize that God is there too, in these moments. Psalm 32 reminds us that God is present, to exhort, to instruct, and to be with us in our struggles and wanderings.
​
"Guided by the Promise" - March 1 - Nicodemus comes to Jesus at night. He must have had some questions. But Jesus takes over the conversation, helping the religious expert to understand that new life is a gift, freely given. Paul also explains that the new life given by God is given by the Spirit, bringing us hope, belonging, forgiveness, transformation – abundant life.
​
"Companion for the Journey" - March 8 - Paul encourages us to rejoice or glory in our sufferings because there, God is with us. We are not alone in the hard times – God is with us and we are with one another. Psalm 95 also rejoices in God’s presence… and warns us of what happens when we choose to turn away from that presence. But even then, God is reaching out, drawing us back to God.
​
"Journeying in Grace" - March 15 - Psalm 23 is deeply familiar. And it is deeply personal and intimate. These words call us to engage, to connect with, to see what God has in store for the faithful. Paul adds to these ideas, inviting us to seek the things of God, while avoiding the things of this world. The fruit of a faithful life is our light exposing the darkness of the world, bringing hope.
​
"Redemption Road" - March 22 - Ezekiel is brough to a place of death and dryness. He is brought there so that he can be the one who holds hope and declares resurrection. Jesus came to a place of death, called by Lazarus’ sisters. Carrying the weight of many things, Jesus first weeps. He then directs those gathered and us today to ‘Take away the stone.’ Doing so, we find life.​
