Thank you for checking out our Web site for Grace United Methodist Church, 1832 West Ninth Street, Hastings, Nebraska. I would like to invite you to peruse the Web site to learn more about our mission, vision, ministries, programs and outreach.

Beyond that, I cordially invite you to attend one of our worship services, study groups, mission opportunities and/or to participate in the music ministry of the church. We have several vocal choirs and a bell choir, too.

Grace United Methodist Church is a friendly, accepting and supportive church with heart-warming and inspiring worship services. There is a very strong emphasis on mission work, and discipleship.

We want people to grow in their faith and to deepen and strengthen their relationship with God and Jesus Christ. We are a “Stephen Ministries” congregation, where trained lay persons participate in the pastoral ministry of the church.
