Sundays @ 5:30pm

We’re starting a church

in the heart of Phoenix, AZ.

We currently gather every Sunday to study the Scriptures, make disciples who embody the heart and hands of Jesus, and engage the city for the purpose of evangelism. Whether you’re curious about Jesus or desiring to dive deep into God’s Word, we’d love to see you this Sunday.

Interested?

We gather every Sunday at 5:30p at Grace Lutheran Church, located at 1124 N 3rd St, Phoenix, AZ 85004. We welcome all people who are curious about Jesus and the Gospel.

We sing, Pastor Nate preaches, and we partake of communion together. The whole service lasts about 90 minutes. The environment is casual, and children’s ministry is offered for kids 6-11yrs.

Our hope and prayer are that this core group gathering will serve as the foundation of a new church plant launching Fall 2025. Whether you’re curious about Jesus or interested in partnering with us, we’d love to meet you this Sunday.
