Flowering the Easter Cross

Every Easter members and guests adorn a cross with fresh flowers transforming a symbol of death, darkness, pain, and hopelessness into something that is beautiful, new and alive in celebration of the Resurrection of Christ.

We are delighted that you're here!

Grace Covenant Presbyterian Church celebrates God’s all-inclusive love. In gratitude for that love, we act in ways to make God’s presence visible in our families, in the greater Kansas City community, and in the world.

Everything we are and everything we do is a celebration of the love we feel as God’s beloved children.

Celebration means taking a clear and joyful stand for inclusion of all God’s children—and gladly bearing the consequences of saying aloud so all can hear that all—ALL –are made in God’s own image. Celebration is sometimes quiet meditation or personal prayers said in great hope or in quiet desperation for a better world. It is generous donations of money to feed children in Haiti and in Kansas City or to send our high school students to sing and to serve in places that need love and light.

We value creativity, community, justice and healing for all.

We are a traditional church in an untraditional way.  As a Matthew 25 congregation, we recognize Christ’s urgent call to be a church of action, where God’s love, justice and mercy shine forth and are contagious. GCPC is an Earth Care Congregation and have committed to the “Earth Care Pledge," accomplishing a specific number of actions toward caring for God’s earth in four categories: worship, education, facilities, and outreach.

We welcome new ideas and we welcome you.
