About Grace Church
Who is Grace Church
Grace Church of Logan Square was first established in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago in 1904, and has been a stalwart ever since. With a focus on justice and the well-bring of our Logan Square neighborhood, we hold strongly to the United Methodist principle that “there is no holiness but social holiness,” and that we are called to act with justice and mercy in the world.
Perched on the corner of two well-trafficked streets in Chicago, Wrightwood and Kimball avenues, we come together on Sunday morning to remember that we need God and each other, to worship, build community and be sent out strengthened by each other and the Holy Spirit.
Grace has a strong history of supporting the church’s surrounding neighborhood. The church regularly collaborates with the Unity Park, just a couple blocks away. Grace Church is a member of the Logan Square Ecumenical Alliance (LSEA), a group of congregations in the neighborhood focused on social justice initiatives that include advocating for affordable housing and community based mental health clinics. Through the LSEA collaborative, Grace has helped make real, measurable, systemic change to benefit our community. We also share our space with community basketball leagues, AA groups, a community art program, The Trash People, St. Luke’s Lutheran Church, Still Point Theater, yoga classes, music and theater groups, and others.
