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 

Sermon Summery

This morning in Ephesians 6:1-4, we will learn how the sacrament of baptism, administered to believers and their children, is not only a sign and seal of the covenant of grace, but also a Christ-ordained ordinance for the training up of our covenant children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

This afternoon, we begin a new sermon series in the Book of Ezra. In Ezra 1:1-4, we will see how restoration of the people of God to the worship of God is the sovereign gracious act of God.
