Come and be a part of what He's doing this Sunday at 10:30am in house or online at graceorlando.com/livestream . Kids and Student ministry available Infants-12th grade.

Happy New Year!🎆 Praying God’s biggest blessings over you in 2024!

Remember-there’s no Sunday Service tomorrow! We’ll be ringing in 2024 with you on the 7th! Happy New Year Grace Church! 🎉

We wish you the very Merriest Christmas! "Glory to God in the highest. Peace on Earth and goodwill toward men." Luke 2:14

Just a reminder that our Sunday Gatherings will be slightly altered for Christmas Eve and New Years Eve. There will be *NO* morning service Sunday, Dec. 24th, but we invite you to our special Christmas Eve and Candlelight Service at 6pm. Next week, on Sun December 31st, we will not be having our regular Sunday service. We will see everyone back online or in- person Sunday Jan 7th!

Christmas has been in full swing these past few weeks, and we've had so much Fa la la la Fun with all of you! And-what about that Figgy Pudding?!! 🎄🔥🍪

The weather outside might be getting frightful, but tomorrow is going to be so DELIGHTFUL! We are still planning on having church and some Christmas cookie fun, so remember to bring a batch of your favorite treats with you. Can't wait to see y'all! 🍪🎄10:30am// graceorlando.com/livestream

We invite you, your family, & friends to join us for our annual Christmas Eve Service! It's one of our favorite ways to celebrate the season, beginning at 6pm.

We had a blast kicking off the month of Christmas this past week with our Ugly Sweater Party. There were a few surprises from our teaching team and even some tree-trimming in Grace Kids. You'll be sure to want to bring the whole family tomorrow for our Hot Cocoa Bar after our 10:30am gathering.

Thanks to your amazing generosity, we were able to fill 90 boxes with gifts for children in our area this Christmas. We are grateful to be partnering with such an awesome organization, Love Missions, and you can get involved in all they're doing around the world by visiting lovemissions.net
