Clark Grace Church
Come and join us for worship and fellowship!
WE ARE A FAITH-BASED PROGRESSIVE COMMUNITY. WE WELCOME ALL PEOPLE AND CELEBRATE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION.
Parking and Accessibility
Our parking lot can be found on the west end of the church, and street parking is also available.
There is an elevator located on the left side of the vestibule, behind the double doors. This elevator will lead you directly to the sanctuary to join for Sunday Worship.
If you are looking for a small, vibrant, integrated church that is breaking stereotypes, we would love to have you join us!
What do our members and friends say about us?
Clark Memorial was the first church in South St. Paul, but it is now Clark-Grace church and we will be celebrating our six-year anniversary in September 2019 as a spiritual community of diversity and inclusion. There were some who said "it could not last" as a black/white church but Clark-Grace is stronger for this union. All are welcome and encouraged to celebrate with us.
When we blended our church several years ago, we ended up on the front page of the New York Times as well as in both the Star Tribune and the Pioneer Press. Our partnership of a traditionally African-American and traditionally European-American church breaks stereotypes!
How did we end up together? Grace Church lost many of its members after Rev. Oliver White took a stand in support of gay marriage. Clark Church, which has been and continues to be supportive of gay marriage for years, struggled with an aging population and dwindling membership. The two churches decided to start a partnership and the result is a vibrant, integrated church. Our church welcomes you regardless of your ethnicity or personal experience with religion.
