Join us Sundays at 9am & 11am | Saturdays at 6pm | Wednesdays at 7pm Grace’s most elemental beginnings date back to 1970 when ... Senior Pastor Ron Tucker started a worship/Bible group. They met two and three nights a week over the next few years until they outgrew his parents’ home and moved to a local church. There they became the church’s youth group and Ron the church’s youth pastor. Their Saturday night meeting grew to over 1500 people of every age. After taking time off to travel and seek God about his future, Ron returned to St. Louis. On May 21, 1978, Grace was launched in a rented room with 30 people. Five months later, ten times as many were coming and the church found more room in a leased storefront. In 1980, the church bought a modest building and nine acres of land, preparing the way for the construction of their present building and the purchase of adjoining land. Since then the church has grown in size, facilities and spirit. Thousands of lives and eternities have been changed as the focus remains on what brought the church together in the first place — loving God and serving people. Our Staff There’s something to be said for having a great staff, and we do. But the great congregation is just as important. We believe that the primary purpose of the staff is to equip lay members so that they can perform ministry. So instead of emphasizing the great staff that serves at Grace, we emphasize the great members who give their time and talents freely. Our Mission Our mission is to lead unchurched people to become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. Our Vision: GRACE Grace is a community of Christ followers committed to: — Grow spiritually in our relationship with Christ — Reach others in His name — Act out our commitment through giving and serving others. — Connect with others in small groups — Exalt God in a lifestyle of worship and prayer. read more
