Grace Anglican Church
We make it our goal to provide biblically rooted, Gospel-oriented messages that make contact with the 'rag and bone shop of the heart' (Yeats). It is also our attempt to proclaim God's two 'words' from Scripture -- the first 'word' is Law (which unveils to us God's glittering righteousness and disturbingly exhumes the vexed human condition) and the second word is 'Gospel' (which is a message of unadulterated and unnuanced acquittal, forgiveness, and belonging through the grace of Jesus Christ). We welcome you to tune in!

The Rev'd Ethan Magness led an 'Instructed Communion' service for Grace Anglican Church, detailing WHY we do what we do. This is a 'compact' version of it, including the explanations for: 1. The opening Act of the Liturgy (Collect for Purity / Commandments) 2. The Word of God (the lessons, sermon, creed) 3. The Prayers and Confession 4. The Communion Table (what the Lord's Supper is and isn't) 5. The Re-Entry into the world (the Lord's Prayer, Post-Communion Prayer, and Blessing)
The liturgy itself is not recorded, just the explanations. Also, a brief sermon on the Ascension of Christ is included. Enjoy!
