We are a community
There are a number of ways for those involved in or interested in Grace Presbyterian Church to gather together!
Upcoming Events
Faith Formation
At Grace Presbyterian Church we seek to offer more than Christian education. With all ages we encourage everyone to be both a learner and a practitioner.
Faith Formation classes meet Sunday mornings at 9:45am. They are on hiatus over the summer and will resume on August 6, 2023. Explore our Virtual Classrooms and find resources for all ages.
Toddlers: (Ages 1 to 4)
- K – 4th Grade- Garden Rm. with Angela Chandler
- Middle School (5th to 8th grades) Ormond Bldg. with Sherry Kimbro
- High School (9th grade to 12th grade) Youth Rm with Richard Newton
- College & Adults: Conference Rm. In person and via Zoom: Meeting ID: 889 4400 8560
Faith formation “engages the whole person—intellect, passions, and spirit—in a process and practice of Christian maturity. It seeks to form or shape a meaningful way of being Christian and putting Christian faith into practice in the world.”
– Diane Butler Bass, Process, Not Program: Christian Faith Formation for Vital Congregations

Our Fall 2023 Season begins in September with Rick Bragg’s The Speckled Beauty.
Presbyterian Women
Presbyterian Women (PW) understands that scripture asks us to be the hands and feet of Christ in the world. As such, Presbyterian Women provides information about justice and peace and ministry to inform mission and community-building work.
The 2023–2024 PW/Horizons Bible study by author Olive Mahabir invites readers to consider Jesus, “the good shepherd” (Luke 10:15), who shared the Good News through sacred encounters with everyday people.
The Gospel According to Luke and the book of the Acts of the Apostles, or Luke-Acts “one story in two parts,” demonstrate the unfolding of God’s redemptive purposes in human history and present a distinctive perspective on the person and work of Jesus Christ. Written by Luke, a physician and traveling companion of Paul, the message to the early Christian community (and to us) is radical, inclusive, and hope-filled.
There are two PW circles which meet September to May of each year for Bible study and fellowship.
Morning: 2nd Wednesday @ 10:00 Evening: 2nd Tuesday @ 6:00
