Worship Services at Grace Episcopal Church

Our liturgies are offered according to the 1979 Episcopal Book of Common Prayer, the Hymnal 1982, their subsequent supplements, and other Episcopal liturgical resources.
Sundays at 8am: Holy Eucharist, Rite 1
We offer a simple, said Rite 1 Eucharist at 8am on Sunday mornings. The service has more traditional language and prayers, including the 'thees' and 'thous', which are the remnant of the intimate form of the second person singular - a more personal way to speak with God.
Sundays at 10:00am: Holy Eucharist, Rite 2
The Rite 2 Eucharist uses more contemporary language and prayers. It has a variety of music, a choir, and hymns. We rotate the Eucharistic Prayer and the Prayers of the People with the liturgical seasons. All are warmly invited and welcome to join us at a generous Coffee Hour immediately following the service.
Healing Ministry
Grace Church continues to be committed to promoting and practicing the healing ministry of Jesus Christ. The Martha’s Vineyard Chapter of the Order of St. Luke International holds its monthly meetings at Grace Church.
Funerals
Grace Church offers its sanctuary and clergy as a resource to anyone who needs a place to hold a funeral.
