Fr. Brian's Farewell
Sunday, August 17
11:30 am
Please join us today in the Parish House after the 10:00am service for a special farewell coffee hour honoring Fr. Brian and his wife, Dona. This will be a time to express our gratitude for their ministry, share memories, and send them off with love and blessings.
Fr. Brian will also be sharing a bit about his residency journey during a brief interview with Fr. Frans. Don’t miss this chance to hear from him one last time before his departure.

We’re “scooper” happy to host the ice cream social you know and love! Classic staples are a must, but this year we’re seeking a few brave volunteers to put their taste buds to the test! Break through the hard chocolate shell and embark on a blind taste battle for the golden scoop!!!
WELCOMING YOU HOME
Grace Episcopal Church has roots in Ocala, Florida that extend back to six families worshiping together in 1849, only four years after Florida became a state. Grace is a Christ centered community of faith. Our mission is to enjoy God and reflect his unconditional love by meeting the various spiritual and practical needs of those who come to worship with us and those who are in our community. Our vision is that every person we come into contact with is warmed by the light and love of God's kingdom as Jesus is lifted up and the Holy Spirit draws more people into His family.
ABOUT OUR CHURCH
In 1905, the entire original church building- with its Carpenter Gothic wood clapboard siding, spire, and arched windows and doors- was moved five blocks from its original location. Grace is more than an historic landmark in Ocala. It is a thriving community of eternal saints, joined across time and space like those old timbers.
SERVICES
Washed in the colors of a stained glass window, we raise our hands in worship. Sensing His love for us, our hearts practically burst in an intimate moment of gratitude. Our worship service is both ancient and modern: grounded in the words of scripture, patterned after the worship of the early church, and relevant for our lives today.
