  • life-giving liturgical worship
  • joyful community
  • empowering others

We live our mission through worship, in which lay adults, children and youth participate alongside our clergy.  Traditional, life-giving Eucharistic liturgy and fine music are hallmarks of worship at our parish, and we have weekly services in both English and Spanish.  We create a joyful community with a harvest of fellowship activities and events for all ages.  We empower and serve others through vital ministries, particularly around feeding the hungry.  Please explore our website to get to know us or, better yet, come visit!

Grace News for April 28, 2017

Christian Formation Hour, Sunday

Adult Forum: Forgiveness and Reconciliation with Pierce Klemmt

Reconciliation is all the rage in our time and from time immemorial. But it seems illusive. For three Sundays, beginning on April 30, come and hear Father Klemmt on how forgiveness is the footstool to reconciliation and without it, no peace can be won. As we explore this topic, we learn how forgiveness is an act of Resurrection.

Twenties and Thirties (TNT) – Sunday at 6:15 p.m.

We invite all TNT’s to join us upstairs at the Evening Star Café for drinks, dinner and conversation. Come meet other TNTer’s, and our VTS Seminarians, William Campbell and Ashley Mather, as we enjoy an evening of fellowship. Please RSVP to Jenni at jenni.faires@gracealex.org.

It’s Brown Bag time again – May 17 – 19

No, the dates aren’t incorrect. St. Paul’s only participates two days a week and in May it is Grace’s turn to cover their Wed – Friday. We will need 180 sandwiches (though not needed until Wednesday, sandwiches can be left in the freezer on Sunday the 14th as usual) and two servers per day. A sign-up sheet is on the Outreach bulletin board along with instructions, or e-mail linda.waskowicz@gracealex.org.
