Grace Episcopal Church

About this church

Grace Episcopal Church in Yantic, a village within Norwich, Connecticut, gathers for worship on Sundays at 10:00 a.m. at 4 Chapel Hill Road. The service is usually a Eucharist (Holy Communion) following The Book of Common Prayer, with congregational singing and pipe organ music. Rite II, the contemporary language, is used most of the year, while the more traditional Rite I appears on occasion, such as during Lent. Worship includes four Bible readings, a sermon, and intentional periods of silence. The style is influenced by the Anglo-Catholic tradition, and the congregation is small enough that most people know one another by name.

On Sundays outside July and August, an informal Coffee and Conversation begins at 9:00 a.m. in Martin Hall, the parish hall next door, and a fellowship hour with light refreshments follows worship in the same room. The parish calendar includes summer picnics, ice cream socials, the Blessing of the Animals, a Christmas Eve pageant, a January Feast of Lights, and periodic suppers. Outreach includes grocery donations for the Norwich Clergy Association's food locker, supplies for a downtown soup kitchen, participation in the city's Crop Walk, and a baseball outing that raises money for Habitat for Humanity and prison ministries. Volunteers can help with gardening, altar care, cooking, and more. Confirm times by calling 860-887-2082 or checking the website.
