Our church meets in Littleworth Community Centre, Stafford.
Chiefly, we are a church that affirms that the Protestant Bible is the inspired, infallible word of God.
We hold to the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith.
Our pastor preaches from the New King James Version (NKJV) translation of the Protestant Bible.
For a comprehensive overview of our doctrinal positions, please review our Statement of Faith.
We sing reverent hymns, typically in acappella format or accompanied by piano, throughout our church service.
Hymnals are provided for use during the service, and we make sure to stock plenty for single visitors and families.
Our pastor leads us in corporate prayer, with opportunities for attendees to participate in prayer on behalf of the church.
Members and visitors in good standing with their church are also welcome to participate in the Lord's Supper, which is typically conducted once per month.
Our pastor reads verse-by-verse through the Scriptures and faithful explains the meaning and applicability for Christian's today.
Sermons follow a sequential Bible reading each week, remaining in the same book until completion, before continuing to the next book.
Attendees are encouraged to fellowship with one another, teaching and discipling appropriately.
We provide free tea, coffee, biscuits, and our members will often times spoil us with some delicious homemade cake!
It's always a joy to see the Lord draw more people to Himself, and we're thankful every time we're blessed with new visitors.
To help get you acquainted with our church family, we're delighted to introduce some of our members. Make sure to visit us during our Sunday worship meetings, and we'd be thrilled to meet you.
My family and I have been attending Grace Church for nearly eight years, and it really has been an answer to prayer. For many years of our marriage, my wife and I had been seeking a church that truly puts Christ first by focusing on the Scriptures as our sole basis for worship.
We have to travel forty-five minutes each week to attend, but it is absolutely worth it! Sharing in fellowship where the Bible is preached from and kept central to our meetings has been a tremendous blessing for us. One we are truly thankful for.

Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me.
