Our Vision

Grace Church of Newark’s vision and purpose is to be contagious Christians, sharing the love of Jesus Christ with the people of this world, starting within our circle of influence. Our desire is to lead them to the Lord and then help disciple them, so they may grow in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior, leading lives of total freedom and victory.

We believe God has called us to minister to the hurting and bind up the wounds of the brokenhearted, to be vessels striving to bring healing and restoration into their lives. As a result, they can walk in freedom and victory over their past hurts, becoming equipped to function as a part of the Body of Christ. In turn, they will reach out to those in their circle of influence, bringing them to the saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to preach good news to the poor, He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives, and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn.
— Isaiah 61:1-2
