About Grace Harbor Church

A community built on faith, love, and service since 1998

Our Story

From Humble Beginnings to a Thriving Community

Grace Harbor Church was founded in 1998 by a small group of 12 families with one simple vision — to create a place where every person could belong, grow, and serve. Over 25 years later, we’ve grown into a congregation of over 1,200 members, but our heart remains the same.
