NEW Location for Fall & Winter Months
Please join us inside EVERY Sunday at 10am.
Now that it's cold outside, we are moving our GracePointe of Sedona's Sunday services of worship/fellowship from the beautiful Posse Grounds Park to a new location. Rick and Carol Gandolfo have graciously offered their studio space to us during these chilly months.
Moving inside, we will practice social distancing. The studio space has a large glass slider that opens up to the patio and Red Rock views.
On warmer mornings, we open up the sliders. After each Sunday service we will also enjoy fellowship with coffee, goodies and conversation.
Please join us in a worship service! We invite all people, locals and those traveling through, believers and non-believers, those new to faith or mature in faith, any and all regardless of who or where you are in your spiritual life. Our services are informal, caring and highly relational. Come to know and feel the love of Christ in a safe small group who care for each other like family. Our worship is blended and includes: a Gathering, Word, Meal and Sending.
Every Sunday 10AM – Blended worship with holy communion followed by 11:00AM – Get Connected-Coffee & Pastries

A Journey Into the Heart of Christmas
2020 Advent Series: Join us for our first Christmas in Sedona!
Our 2020 Advent theme “A Journey Into the Heart of Christmas.” During Advent, the 4 Sundays before Christmas, we long for God to come and heal our brokenness. Much like Lent, we pray, fast and prepare our hearts to receive the Christ Child and give witness to the Light.
John 1
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. 4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.

Our Core Values
Christ Centered
We confess the apostolic faith in Jesus Christ according to the Holy Scriptures. We affirm the authority of the Scriptures as the authoritative source and norm, “according to which all doctrines should and must be judged” (Formula of Concord). We accept the ecumenical creeds and the Lutheran Confessions as true witnesses to the Word of God.
Mission Driven
We believe that the mission of the Church is to preach the Gospel and to make disciples for Christ. We believe that making disciples — in our congregations, in our communities and nations, and around the world — must be a priority of the Church in the present age.
Traditionally Grounded
We affirm the ecumenical creeds and the faithful witness of the Church across time and space. We endorse the form and practices of the universal Church that are consistent with Scripture, particularly the office of the ministry and the tradition of worship under Word and Sacrament. We seek dialogue and fellowship with other Lutheran churches and with faithful Christians of other confessions.
Congregationally Focused
We strive to be a church that is organized to facilitate the ministries of local congregations in a posture of servanthood and a spirit of partnership, through the provision of resources, connections and information.Rev Dona Johnson
