We Choose

We Choose is our ministry plan—it provides a framework for our church to pursue spiritual health and advance God's Kingdom both within and outside of our local congregations. We believe our mission of making disciples is intertwined with serving our communities at home and the global church.

Mosaic Family Retreat Provides Fun and Community

November 9, 2022

Last month, Grace hosted the first Mosaic Family Retreat! Mosaic is our ministry for children, students, and adults with special needs or disabilities, and this retreat was a great time for everyone. We had 30 families attend—50 caregivers and 68 individuals (participants in Mosaic as well as their siblings). There were also 90 volunteers present to make this day happen, and we are so thankful for their faithfulness and generosity in serving our Mosaic families.

Just last week, Grace Church Worship released an album of new, original songs—Church Arise. This collection has a common thread running through it—individual believers, experiencing the gospel together in community. Through these songs, we hope to encourage our church body to praise together, weep together, endure together, and go on mission together.

Serving Partners Nick and Annie VanWingerden | Grenoble, France

November 1, 2022

Nick and Annie VanWingerden are missionaries serving in Grenoble, France, and we are privileged to support and partner with them. Like most typical post-Christian European countries, France has great spiritual needs. Its proximity to North Africa and immigration have changed the landscape both ethnically and religiously. The VanWingerdens and their local church can connect with young people from all over the world. They are seeking to reach the least reached peoples where they are most reachable to make an impact for God's Kingdom.

Life Change | God's Presence in Suffering

October 19, 2022

Louie and Johnna Gaunch had lived in West Virginia their entire lives. However, when they became empty nesters, God moved in their hearts to explore the Upstate of South Carolina where their oldest daughter was living. When Louie and Johnna visited, they fell in love with the Anderson area. They visited Grace’s Anderson campus, made some connections with staff, and began their plans to build a new life in a new place.
