Hallmarks of Grace

Grace Episcopal Church is a friendly congregation marked by a commitment to service and witness in our community, the arts of all kinds, especially music, with offerings ranging from blues to Bach; simple but reverent worship; education and formation for children and adults alike, with wide-ranging conversations about faith and life; and building community both within and without the church’s walls and the gates opening onto its grounds.

True to its history (which you can read more about here), Grace Church is committed to not only continuing its outreach program to the disenfranchised of the community, but also to providing a spiritual refuge for everyone living and working in the Georgetown area regardless of their religious affiliation.

Visitors to Grace find a warm welcome, wonderful music, and a heartfelt faith. Join us for a service, an event, or just moment of quiet during your day.
