Located about four blocks directly west of the Kansas Capital, Grace prides itself as being a “House of Prayer for All People”. The church is used for many community activities during the year. Everything from nursing school graduations to silent movies.

One of, if not the most, moving of all the services each year is the Easter Vigil. You walk into a almost totally dark church with everyone very somber and quiet. The service then builds to a joyous event. In this video about 1:30 into the video the choir sings “Jesus Christ Has Risen Today”. The hymn has evolved over the years beginning with the Latin words in the 13th century.
