about us

Welcome

We are a church community in the heart of Greenwich for anyone who wants to investigate the claims of Jesus or wants to know and serve him better.

Underpinning all that Grace Church does is a firm commitment to hearing God’s voice through the teaching of his word, the Bible. We gather on Sundays for this purpose, but we also run small groups during the week so that people can gather to learn more about Jesus and encourage one another to live for him.

Grace Church of Greenwich is a relaxed church family and consists of people of all ages and backgrounds. We’d love for you to come and join us!

Our Story

Grace Church of Greenwich met for the first time in 1994 in Greenwich’s Hyatt Regency. Since then it has grown under the leadership of the Reverend Tom Oates, moving in 1996 to the Woman’s Club of Greenwich. Although it is based in Greenwich, people come from many other surrounding towns to be a part of the church family.

Grace Church is part of the Presbyterian Church in America.

As a PCA Church we subscribe to the Westminster Confession of Faith.
