Grace Chapel
Welcome to Grace Chapel! Too often western Christianity is about education over discipleship or evangelism. We love to grow in our knowledge of God but lack in our application of what we know from His Word. In this message we addressed what it means to follow Christ by taking up our Cross with Christ daily.
The Grace Chapel Mission:
LEADING PEOPLE TO FIND AND FOLLOW JESUS.
To live out our mission, we begin with the end in mind.
