What to expect when you visit
If you come to visit with us on a Sunday morning, you can expect...
...to be warmly welcomed but not smothered.We are eager and excited to have guests with us on Sunday mornings. Our church is small enough to "notice" when a visitor is with us, but we're large enough so that you won't feel like you "stick out like a sore thumb."
...to see a variety of different styles of dress in the room.Since the early days at Grace Fellowship, we have intentionally decided to NOT make an issue out of Sunday morning attire. The majority of our members and attenders wear casual attire to church on Sunday.
...to worship alongside of people who like one another,enjoy being together, and love to worship God. Of course, we're not always happy and experiencing a spiritual high, but we do genuinely love God and one another - and we hope that is obvious to you during our worship service.
...a contemporary worship servicethat is God-centered, Biblically based, and musically excellent. We look for the best modern worship choruses and use them in our services. We also utilize many older hymns, creeds, and confessions that have stood the test of time in the Church over the last 2000 years. Our worship is orderly and sincere but we intentionally leave room in our plans for the Spirit of God to lead us as we worship.
...to be invited to lunch after the service!Often, our regular attenders enjoy gathering at a local restaurant for Sunday lunch. If you visit - and if you'll wait around for a few minutes after the service - you'll probably be invited to lunch! Hopefully, you'll accept the invitation!

Quoted
"The connection between Christ’s death and the Christian’s call to self-abnegating service is made quite explicit in such teaching of the Gospels as ‘if any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me’ (Mark 8:34) and ‘Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple’ (Luke 14). The Cross, then, stands for the entire Christian way of looking at and living life. It is the real crux of decision for or against Christ. One can do three things with the Cross—and only three. One can deny that it happened because if acknowledged, it would make nonsense of life; one can acknowledge it and decide in consequence that life is meaningless; or one can find in it a clue to a deeper meaning in life than otherwise appears. There are no other possibilities."
