Grace Church, Newton MA is a faith community in the Episcopal (Anglican) tradition. Every Sunday at communion our priest says, “Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, you are welcome here.” And we mean it! Exclusion is not our style. Hospitality is. We are straight and gay, from many different racial and ethnic backgrounds, seekers and doubters, newbies and lifelong church-goers. We are known for our commitment to social justice, our support of women in ministry (ordained and lay), and our love of learning and discussion. We’ve been in Newton Corner for a while (since 1855). We grow in faith together, and extend Christ’s welcome out into the world. https://gracenewton.org/about daily 0.75 2025-06-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eb2fc06e2ea371405d175c9/1590609296346-7EEKYUHM8VXYY7P7IRG9/DSC04386.jpg About - About us… Grace Church is located at 76 Eldredge St. in Newton, MA 02458, in the village of Newton Corner, which borders Brighton and Watertown.

Through celebrating the liturgical year we create opportunities for youth leadership in worship, learn to sing and pray together, and learn more about our faith tradition while holding space for questions and doubt, in a community that values diversity and kindness. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eb2fc06e2ea371405d175c9/1599066289437-Z0UX4FK4Z9TUDKBF73Y3/IMG_5969.jpg Children, Youth, and Families - Formation for Youth Youth also have the opportunities to join in service projects and social action events throughout the year. We’ve collected children’s books for the Blackstone Library; supported our local food pantry by holding an Election Day bake sale and selling homemade apple pies; collected funds to donate to the Animal Rescue League of Boston; and completed a service project with the Appalachian Mountain Club at the Noble View Outdoor Center in Russell, MA. During the summer of 2020, several youth participated in a multi-church Virtual Social Justice Organizing Camp and met online with their legislators to speak about issues important to them. We continue to meet as a Youth Group for fellowship, fun, and formation. Our question this year is “In this time, who am I called to be, and what am I called to do?” To join monthly meetings email Sofia or check Grace Today, our weekly newsletter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5eb2fc06e2ea371405d175c9/1599066673095-NJ61YHZEO1EX6356I9X3/DSC09246.jpg Children, Youth, and Families - Acolyte Ministry Serving as an acolyte is a way for children and youth from 4th to 12th grades to participate in and feel part of the church’s traditions.

The stations will be up until April 3, when they will be replaced by Stations of the Resurrection. The weather is against our installation! The wind over the weekend took down a number of images. Monday 3/29 is supposed to be incredibly windy as well, so the images will be back up on Tuesday morning, 3/30.
