WELCOME TO GRACE OPC!  On behalf of the session of Grace OPC, I want to extend our warmest greetings to you.  It is my hope and prayer that as we gather together this Lord’s Day to worship our Triune God and Redeemer, you will be encouraged to cast your cares upon the Lord and to draw near to God by faith in His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. If you are new here in Fair Lawn, please join us for fellowship following the benediction, and be sure to sign our guestbook.  We look forward to personally speaking with you, and if there are any prayer concerns in your heart, don’t hesitate to bring them to our attention. Pastor John 

This morning in Isaiah 2:1-4 we will see how the glory of the world to come is the motivation for the church to live for the glory of Christ today, as He teaches us His ways and we walk in His paths.

This Afternoon in 1 Samuel 27:1-28:2, we will learn from David’s failure to turn to the Lord  when his fear was giving way to flight, how we must and can trust in God’s perfect will in the midst of our sufferings, trials and affliction.

 Fellowship Luncheon Today: Following the morning worship we will be having our monthly fellowship potluck luncheon. Please plan to join us!

 Grace OPC Family Fall Day Trip to Wightman Farms: This Saturday our families and friends will enjoy a taste of the Fall season. Lots of fun including 7 Mazes!
