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 Keegan 

This morning in 1 Peter 1:22-2:3, we will learn how the preached Word is instrumental in the new birth of the child of God and is vital to the growth of the child of God.

This afternoon Mr. Kevin Vasquez will open 1 Corinthians 15:50-58, where we will see that in the promise of glorified bodies and the removal of the sting of death by the triumphant resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, we have the assurance that our labors in and for the Lord, are not in vain.

Today, Fellowship Luncheon Join us following this morning worship for our monthly fellowship luncheon. These delicious luncheons are a potluck meal.
