Welcome to Grace Community Baptist Church

                 Located in picturesque Palatka, Florida, we are an independent Baptist church committed to the teaching of God's Word in an expository manner (verse-by-verse and book-by-book). If you are looking to grow in your relationship to Jesus through what the Bible teaches or if you want to know more about a relationship with God, we would be glad to have you come visit or to talk with you more.  See our Location/Contact Us page for more details.

See the live streams of our Sunday messages over on our Facebook page Or listen to all of our sermons here.

We are meeting in person with some precautions:
  • We are continuing to ask those who do come to church to please keep a wise physical distance (6 feet) from each other in accordance with the recommendation of our government similar to how one would be in a store or restaurant.
  • We would request that you leave an extra couple seats between different family groups. Please, however, intentionally be an encouragement to one another spiritually in your “personal-bubble-respecting” interactions before, during, and after the services.
  • Please remember to wash your hands before you come and after you arrive.
  • Please avoid shaking hands and other physical contact.
  • If you are sick please do not come.
  • Sanitizer and masks are available in the foyer for your convenience as needed.
  • We will continue to have a Facebook live video stream of our messages. So if you deem that it is not best for you to come in person we would invite you to join us virtually on our church Facebook page or here on our website. We are working on making live-streaming a more permanent part of our ministry. All the audio sermons are also here on the church website for you to listen to. If you need help accessing any of this please let us know.
  • We are not conducting our monthly men’s/women’s/fellowship dinners currently, and will reassess these kinds of activities along the way.
Lastly, we realize that different people have varying understandings of this virus, and the best responses to it. We would simply ask that you live in grace and understanding with each other in all of this. None of us have the complete picture of this all. So let’s not live in fear, but walk in wisdom and love towards each other. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us. If there is any way we can serve or help you during this challenging time let us know. We are praying for you all.
