Welcome to Grace Episcopal Church!

 

The mission of Grace Church is to preach the Gospel. We seek to utilize and develop the total resources of the congregation to further God's work.

We are a welcoming community of faith where you will find a warm and friendly embrace. We are blessed with 4 acres of beautiful grounds, which extend down to the Rancocas Creek. Our lawn and gardens provide a place of beauty and serenity with several benches to offer relaxation and rest for those seeking a quiet moment with our creating God.

Our parish family worships in a beautiful sandstone church which has been hallowed by years of prayer offered to God during public worship and by the private prayers of our members.

The first gathering of people for worship in this community was in private homes back in 1839. We were incorporated as a parish on April 20, 1854.

The Holy Eucharist is offered each Sunday at 8 a.m. and a Choral Eucharist at 10:30. a.m. Grace Church is a singing congregation, and one of the main ways we offer praise to God is through our Hymns and music. All members are encouraged to participate in our worship services with acolytes, readers, ushers, chalice bearers, youth and adult choirs, altar guild, organist and choir director all contributing to the worship we offer.

It is our hope that you will join us as we continue to pray, praise, and grow into the Christian family God has called us to be.

A Prayer of Self Dedication (from the Book of Common Prayer, p. 832)

Almighty and eternal God, so draw our hearts to you, so guide our mind, so fill our imaginations, so control wills, that we may be wholly yours, utterly dedicated to you, and then use us, we pray, as you will, and always to your glory and the welfare of your people; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ Amen.
