Partnership with Hunger Corp in Puerto Rico | Summer 2025
August 7, 2025
This summer, two teams of volunteers each spent a week in Puerto Rico with Hunger Corp to help ongoing restoration efforts in a community still reeling from a series of natural disasters. Hunger Corp is a local nonprofit organization that works to help rebuild Puerto Rico through a gospel-centered approach—showing the love of Christ as homes are rebuilt, businesses are restored, and communities are strengthened.
1,516 Backpacks Collected for Children in Need
July 31, 2025
Thank you, Grace Church, for providing 1,516 backpacks full of school supplies through our Back-to-School Drive supporting children in need across the Upstate! It is a blessing to be able to deliver these backpacks to local DSS workers and other partners knowing that each one has been filled with care. These vulnerable children each have unique circumstances and barriers to the gospel, so we are praying that the gift of a backpack will speak to them of Jesus' love and provision.
Missional Living Groups Update | Taylors
July 17, 2025
Recently, a group of 14 members from our Missional Living Groups at the Taylors campus had the opportunity to spend a week in Costa Rica in partnership with Filter of Hope. The groups met as a year-long class with the aim of serving vulnerable people in our community and out in the world. Members learned about immigrants, refugees, and low income communities while engaging in service projects through partnerships with local and international ministries. This international trip was a capstone to their year-long missional living growth!
Local Outreach Spotlight | Hurricane Relief Continues
July 10, 2025
Over the past several months, volunteers from our campuses have continued to work in various ways to support folks in our communities and those in Western North Carolina affected by Hurricane Helene.

We are grateful for an opportunity to continue supporting recovery and to show God’s love in tangible ways.

Celebrating 30 Years!
June 27, 2025
It is with humble gratitude that we had the opportunity to celebrate 30 years of Grace Church all month long! In celebration of this milestone, we took some time to reflect on God’s faithfulness and provision over the decades—we celebrated our shared history across our campuses, heard personal stories from some of our members, and spent some time remembering how it all started.
Local Outreach Spotlight | World Relief and iFace
June 24, 2025
One facet of our Local Outreach ministry is our partnership with World Relief and iFace—two organizations that strive to manifest Christ’s love to our local refugee neighbors. Exciting work has been happening in our community lately, and as June is World Refugee Awareness Month, we want to take a moment to highlight some recent events and hear stories from our volunteers!
Kairos Interns Are Here!
June 9, 2025
Have you had a chance to meet our Kairos summer interns yet? We are excited to have these young guys and gals learning, growing, and serving alongside us for the next couple months. Representing many different universities and states, interns in the Kairos program bring their energy, skills, and passion to an array of ministry areas—including Students, A/V, Communications, Outreach, Worship, and more. Our desire is to invest in the next generation of disciple-makers and church leaders.
Summer Missions | Partnering with Local Churches
June 2, 2025
As we believe that the body of Christ is more than one church, we seek to come alongside local churches both in the Upstate and the Lowcountry of South Carolina. Partnering with these churches allows our students to serve locally on summer missions trips through gospel-centered summer camps for young children. We are grateful for the opportunity to disciple our students by bringing a living demonstration of the gospel to fruition in our own backyard! Take a look at the video below to find out more about two of these partnerships: BridgeBuilders and Camp Griggs.
