WELCOME ALL PENN STATE STUDENTS. PLEASE JOIN US!
Sunday Worship: Join us in person on Sundays at 8, 9 and 10:30 am.
You can also watch our Live Stream starting at 10:30 am.
Whether you're looking for a church home, asking big questions about life, or simply hoping to meet caring people during your time at Penn State, we'd love to welcome you. We hope you'll stop by, introduce yourself, and make Grace part of you college journey.
Come experience God's presence with us no matter where you are on your faith journey. Never been to a Lutheran service? That's okay! We'll help you follow along, and no one will single you out. Come as you are - jeans, shorts, and Penn State jerseys are perfectly fine.
Wednesday: Food, Faith and Fellowship 5pm - Students Free!!
From September to May, we gather for a community meal prepared by our Fellowship Ministry team served from 5:00-6:10pm. Faith (Bible study or worship) or Fellowship activities follow from 6:15-7:00pm.
Meet other students and members of the Grace community over dinner, conversation and Bible study. No need to register - just come hungry!

Am I really welcome here? YES!
Jesus commands us to "love our neighbors as ourselves." (Mark 12:31)
Accordingly, Grace is a place for every body - all ages and stages; races and ethnicities; all sexual orientations, gender identities, and gender expressions; those living with neurodiversity, disabilities and those who currently are not. Undergraduate and graduate students from every faith tradition, and those with no church background at all are welcome here. As a community guided by the call of Jesus, we are committed to growing in anti-racism and compassion for all marginalized people. Through worship, education, service, and social activities we are always learning to love one another as Jesus intends, with every body in mind. We strive to be a community where you can share your talents and find a spiritual home. It doesn't matter if you're from Pennsylvania or from halfway around the world, we'd love to meet you.
Join with us as we experience God's presence together.
