FAMILY - COMMUNITY - TOGETHER
At Grace Mardela, we’re creating space for families to grow, people to connect, and our church to gather together around Jesus. Come find your place this Sunday.
What Service Should I Attend?
Family Gathering
9:30am - 10:30am
The Family Gathering is designed to help the whole family grow together.
This is not just a kids’ program or a place for parents to drop their children off. It is a gathering where parents, kids, and families learn together through Bible teaching, discussion, and hands-on activities. Our goal is to help families talk about faith, practice following Jesus together, and continue those conversations throughout the week.
Family Gathering Flow:
9:30am - 9:50am: Family Focused teaching and activities
9:50am - 10:00am: Wrap Up Crafts/Activities
10:00am - 10:15am: Worship Music with Everyone
10:15am - 10:30am: Family & Community Fellowship
10:30am: Stay for the Community Message or Head Out
The Family Gathering is a great fit for families with children, but it is also open to anyone who enjoys a more interactive and discussion-based teaching environment.
Community Gathering
9:50am - 11am
The Community Gathering is a more traditional Sunday gathering with worship, fellowship, and practical Bible teaching.
This gathering is designed for adults, older students, and anyone who connects best through a message-style teaching format. We worship together, spend time connecting with one another, and then open God’s Word in a way that is clear, practical, and connected to real life.
Community Gathering Flow:
9:50am - 10:00am: Arrival
10:00am - 10:15am: Worship Music with Everyone
10:15am - 10:30am: Family & Community Fellowship
10:30am - 11:00am: Message
11:00am: Dismissal
Whether you are new to church, returning after time away, or looking for a church family, the Community Gathering is a simple place to start.
Together Gathering
9:30am - 11am
The Together Gathering is for anyone who wants to be part of the full Sunday morning at Grace Mardela.
On most Sundays, this means participating in both the Family Gathering and the Community Gathering. You’ll begin with family-focused teaching, discussion, and activities, then join everyone for worship and fellowship, and stay for Community Teaching.
Together Gathering Flow:

Once a month, the Together Gathering becomes our only Sunday option. On those Sundays, everyone gathers in one shared service that blends both styles — family interaction, practical Bible teaching, worship, and fellowship — so the whole church can grow together as one church family.
