Community Connections
Grace Church is filled with members and friends coming together each Sunday morning to worship the Lord. Our services are always open to all!
As a church, we are committed to being good neighbors and giving back to our community. With this in mind, we provide our buildings and grounds as a resource for community events and activities. We believe that by sharing our space, we can help create a stronger, more connected community.
But hundreds of others in our community also call Grace Church "home" and fill our halls every week. We are pleased to offer our building and facilities to community organizations whose missions and values align with our mission and ministries.
Diocesan programs, prayer groups, and support groups are just a few of our community connections. See the listing below to learn more about some of these organizations. If you are interested in using our facilities for meetings or special events, please get in touch with the parish office (office@gracekirkwood.org).
Contemplative Outreach of St. Louis
Contemplative Outreach of St. Louis has served the contemplative community in Eastern Missouri and Southern Illinois since 1989. They are a chapter of Contemplative Outreach, Ltd. Their mission is to teach the method of Centering Prayer and to support those whose Spiritual Journey includes a practice of this prayer.
The Lab School
The Lab School is an independent, not-for-profit preschool dedicated to nurturing young children. The Lab School has been serving three- to six-year old children and their families in Kirkwood, Webster Groves, Glendale, Missouri, and beyond since 1964.
Commissary Kitchen
We also have a community kitchen that we share with small businesses. Over the years, we have helped several catering and food truck businesses get their start by providing them with a fully equipped kitchen and a supportive environment. Many of these entrepreneurs have gone on to become successful small business owners. We take pride in being a launchpad for local entrepreneurs and helping them achieve their dreams.
