Our Purpose 

Grace Fellowship exists to be relevant as we lead our generation to God and connect people in a growing relationship with believers.

An Introduction To Grace Fellowship

If you're investigating Christianity for the first time, coming back to church after a number of years or looking for a new church home, we invite you to visit Grace Fellowship. When you come you can expect to find a friendly welcome, a relaxed and casual atmosphere, great music and relevant messages, and opportunities to grow by learning and serving. Most importantly, you can expect to worship, learn more about God, receive prayer and experience His presence in a way you can relate to! We look forward to getting to know you!

Who We Are

At Grace Fellowship we're trying to change the stereotype that many people have about churches today (boring, stiff, hypocritical, out-of-touch with today's issues). Our goal is to make church a stimulating, fun experience, where people can meet new friends, hear a practical message they can apply to their lives, and express worship to God with a blend of worship music. 

We think Sunday mornings should be relaxing, comfortable, and we encourage people to grab a free cup of coffee when they arrive. You'll find the words to the songs and Bible verses displayed on a screen for your convenience. We find that you don't have to be dressed in a suit to have God touch your life, and you don't have to act religious to learn something from the Bible that will help you live to the fullest. 

We value being "naturally supernatural" where Jesus, His Word and God's Spirit are the same now as they've always been, healing, forgiving, changing, empowering -- relating to us where we now are and taking us to where God wants us to be. We want others to share in this relationship, so a big part of our ministry is reaching out to the community to show God's love in a practical way.

Knowing The Signs  

Today's message:

The Role of America In Future Events

Never before have we witnessed the unfolding of God’s plan for the Jew and the Gentile and the preparation for his return to set up his Kingdom.  Jesus told us to pay attention to the signs of his return.  This message series is about understanding how world events fit into God’s plan and how we with confidence can speak to our generation with his truth to bring genuine hope and peace to each person searching for answers.  Brent Rolsten and Todd Strohm will be teaming up for an exciting discovery of how world events fit into God’s prophetic blueprint.  Bring a friend and get connected in this series.

Children’s Ministry 

We value young families and their children. If you are new with us at GRACE, we welcome all children into the Worship Center for the first part of the service, and the before the first part of the message, the children are dismissed for the exciting GRACE KIDS MINISTRY. We have opportunities for each age group. The Nursery Ministry is available for the entire service.

Kingdom Ministry. 

Kingdom Ministry is about observing what Jesus was doing in his ministry and then incorporating those aspects into our time together.  It is a fresh approach to being genuine and engaged.  So ask yourself, “What was Jesus doing?”  The ministry of Jesus involved worship, prayer, teaching, serving, healing.  We want those elements to be active in our Wednesday night gatherings.  To do Kingdom Ministry implies that we are citizens of the Kingdom.  In our teaching portion, we will be looking at The Sermon on the Mount, where Jesus lays out for us how we are to live and move in the Kingdom.  We will start with the first 15 minutes focused on worship and getting our thoughts on God through singing or meditation on Scripture.  Out of that time will flow the ministry that God wants us to engage in.  Plan now to join us for a significant midweek experience!

World Impact Tour

Only 3% of the young people in this generation born since 1983 are connected in a relationship with God.  On September 28 – October 2 we want to change that percentage in Chillicothe.  YWAM [Youth With A Mission] will be sending 75-100 missionaries from all over the world to reach young people for Christ along with the churches in Chillicothe.  Featured will be extreme sports:  strong men, skate boarding, and dance.  Through these events in the evening and assemblies in schools during the day, we believe there will be a great harvest of decisions for Christ.  On Sunday, July 5, we will be finding out more about how Grace Fellowship Church can enter the harvest fields of this generation.  There will be a place for each one to serve and contribute in this life changing World Impact Tour!

Kenya Compassion Project. 

We have been reaching out to the Samburu Tribe in Kenya Africa with God’s kind of compassion.  The resources from Grace together with other networking connections has moved our total to $1747 beyond our goal of $1500.  Bless God for his provision of his resources!   Through you and the network of others, the Samburu Tribe will experience God’s compassion with 720 mosquito nets and a 2200 gallon water tank  filled with clean water.  This act of kindness will open the hearts of the people to believe in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
