St. Patrick’s serves the east end of Wilmington and have done so for a long time. St. Patrick’s was founded in 1880, as the city and the area of Irish immigration expanded. Though small, we maintain a vital presence in the city. The buildings and grounds are islands of beauty, and the regular celebration of the liturgy sanctifies the city. St. Patrick’s boasts some of the finest windows in the city.

At Grace Church, we bear witness to God’s grace, since 1864. In the midst of Civil War, Civil Rights, the 1968 occupation, and the current challenges and opportunities in 2020—we see the grace of God, wondrously working in ways we can’t always articulate and in ordinary ways through wonderfully ordinary people, like you and me. The grace that goes before us, that surrounds us, that leads us, that fills us, is spilling over into all we do and say.

We don’t always get it right. If you take part in our community life, you will see us make mistakes and ways we could do better. We, too, need grace. And we believe that God’s grace has been present, since the beginning of creation, made flesh in Jesus who was full of grace and truth, and working through us as a family in Christ by the power of the Spirit.  Join us sometime!
