Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church

About this church

Grace Evangelical Lutheran Church worships at 225 East Main Street in Safford every Sunday at 10:00 a.m. The congregation follows confessional Lutheran liturgies from Christian Worship, the Wisconsin Synod hymnal. Holy Communion is celebrated on the first and third Sundays of the month. The official worship page explains that “liturgy” means an order of worship and links to a guide describing the Service of the Word and Communion service for guests who may be unfamiliar with Lutheran practice.

Grace is a member of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod and uses its site as both a local worship guide and a library of Lutheran devotion, theology, reformer writings, and denominational history. Video devotions and seasonal worship resources allow visitors to hear teaching outside the Sunday gathering. During Lent, the congregation has historically held Wednesday services at 5:00 p.m., but those dates and themes are seasonal and should be verified rather than assumed. The site also links to Wisconsin Lutheran education, family service, mission, and ministry resources. For someone seeking a small, traditional Lutheran congregation in the Gila Valley, the most stable local details are clear: year-round Sunday worship at ten, WELS liturgy, and twice-monthly Communion.
