City of Grace

City of Grace is a thriving and dynamic church that is deeply rooted in its mission to be a church in the city, of the city, and for the city. We are a passionate, loving community empowered by grace and committed to transforming the lives of individuals and the community at large. We believe that God’s love can make a lasting impact in every area of life, and that the church is the perfect place to experience this transformation.

Our Purpose: Love, Grace, and Community

At City of Grace, we are a people inspired by love, empowered by grace, and deeply engaged in building a strong community. Our purpose is simple yet profound: to spread the love of Christ to everyone, to empower people to live in God’s grace, and to foster a sense of belonging and connection. We believe that the church is not just a place you go to; it’s a family you belong to. Here, you’ll find a space where you can grow spiritually, find purpose, and be a part of something much bigger than yourself.

Meet Our Lead Pastors: Terry and Judith Crist

Terry and Judith Crist are the heart and soul behind City of Grace. As fifth-generation pastors, they have dedicated their lives to building the local church and reaching out to those in need. With over 30 years of ministry experience, Terry and Judith have cultivated a church culture that is grounded in love, service, and empowerment.

Terry and Judith’s family is their greatest joy. They are the proud parents of three sons: Terry III, Joshua, and Tyler. But their pride and joy go even further with their grandchildren—Asher Phoenix, Alexandria Sophia, Victorian Johannes, and Emil Magnus. The Crist family’s love for God and commitment to service runs deep, and they continue to lead City of Grace with passion, dedication, and integrity.
