If you’re new to our church, we want your visit to be worshipful,

informative, and comfortable. Along with the worship service, there

are many other resources available including Sunday School for

nursery through 5th grade, youth ministries, and adult classes.

They’re a great way to more intimately find the pulse of who we are

as a church and connect with others. Just ask any one of our greeters

to direct the way. You can find much more on our website at

graceevan.org. We’re glad to have you.
