Celebrating God’s love, seeking God’s direction together.
Have you heard terms like “faith development” or “spiritual growth” and wondered what they meant? Have you been curious about “small groups”? For many adults, Christian Education stopped back in the teen years, and Sunday School seems like something for children. And yet, as we grow in years, our understanding of most areas of life deepens. We learn more about how the world works and how to build relationships with others. We acquire new skills and hone old ones. We get better at whatever we spend our time on. Faith is like that. If we take the time to study and explore faith with others, we grow in understanding. If we make a habit of listening for God, we grow in patience and wisdom. If we learn to read the Bible, we find ourselves in the stories it contains. If we offer a welcome to the stranger, we just might discover the surprising presence of Christ. Where to start? Try a Sunday morning Faith Formation class. We have a multi-age adult class where you will enjoy fellowship and refreshments while participating in study and discussion. It is okay to have questions. We all have questions. Growing in faith does not mean answering all the questions. It means building a deeper and stronger relationship with God. And that’s important for us all.
We have other small groups which offer opportunities for fellowship, growth, and service. Please see the information below for more details, and visit the Upcoming Events page for dates and times. Also, you may contact the church office to request more information from the leaders of the various groups.

Points of Grace
Do you like to knit, crochet, sew – or would you like to learn those skills, or even scrap booking? Would you like to enjoy fellowshipping while doing those things? Well, come join us at Grace for our Points of Grace gatherings on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month. We meet from 10:30 am to 2:30 pm, with lunch provided. Contact the church office (757) 595-0017 if you have any questions. Check the church website for any changes or updates.
Monthly Ladies’ Luncheon
What a wonderful way to get to know the ladies of Grace UMC. Join us for conversation and fellowship at our monthly luncheons the second Thursday of each month at the Warwick Restaurant, at 11:30 am. We have our own special room in the back of the restaurant. In June and December, we gather at the Hampton Yacht Club for a special treat. We car pool for those lunches. During the months of July and August we don’t meet because of vacations. We hope you will join us.
