Grace Discipleship focuses on personal spiritual renewal, biblical and theological foundations and practical instruction to experience what it means to live a life of renewal and spiritual vitality. Our desire is for everyone to grow deeper in their gospel understanding.
Join Andrew Kerhoulas, Associate Pastor, over on our new GMR Discipleship group on Facebook. We simply want to provide a space for online interaction about following Jesus together as a church.
Not on Facebook? No problem! Contact Us and let us know how we can best connect with you.
