I was surprised to read the other review here because my experience at Grace Church has been so…read morecompletely different. I don't want to discount someone else's experience, but I do want to share mine. I have been attending Grace for about five months, and from the very beginning I have found the people here to be warm, loving, genuine, and welcoming. In a relatively short time, I have made many friends and have truly begun to feel that I belong here. The pastor is an exceptionally gifted teacher. He has a wonderful ability to make the Bible come alive--not simply by explaining the stories and passages, but by helping us understand how they apply to our own lives today. I always leave church feeling inspired, challenged, and motivated to become a better follower of Christ. I have also never experienced the church belittling other churches. The only message along those lines that I remember hearing was an encouragement that, wherever you choose to attend church, you should make sure that church teaches from the Bible. I thought that was both reasonable and wise. Perhaps the most meaningful thing I can say is this: when I first began attending Grace, I would not have described myself as much of a believer. Something changed for me here. Through the teaching, the people I have met, and the welcome I have received, my faith has grown tremendously. I am deeply grateful that I found this church. And to the person who wrote the other review: I am genuinely sorry that your experience was so painful, particularly if it contributed to your losing your faith. If you ever decide to give Grace another chance, I would gladly invite you to sit with me. We could listen to the message together, and perhaps you might experience some of the warmth and encouragement that I have been fortunate enough to find here. For me, Grace Church has been a tremendous blessing, and I am very thankful to be part of this community.

The rehearsal went smoothly even though there were about 50 people at the church lol My husband and I are different faiths and this was the first Christian wedding I was experiencing so I was a bit nervous. He made sure I was comfortable and everyone knew what they needed to do.
