The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they
are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion,” says my
soul, “therefore I will hope in him.” Lamentations 3:22–24

When thinking of Grace Presbyterian Church, the hymn “Great is Thy
Faithfulness” written by Thomas Chisholm and inspired by the Scripture above
comes to mind.
Praise the Lord for what He has done. He has indeed had compassion on each of
us and His church at Grace. “Thy compassions, they fail not.”
Grace has been blessed over 150 years with a cloud of faithful saints, who have
demonstrated commitment to the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ through love,
compassion, sacrifice, and generosity. “Morning by morning new mercies I see.”
The church has experienced God’s faithful hand at work over and over again when
facing doubt, challenges and questioning what we should do. In prayer, humility
and unity we have seen Him at work and experienced awesome wonders. “All I
have needed thy hand hath provided; great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!”

Christ Jesus, help us continue the legacy of Grace by loving You, our God,
with all our hearts, and with all of our souls, and with all of our minds, and
with all of our strength, and loving our neighbors as ourselves.
