We offer Morning Prayer each Sunday at 9:00 AM and a traditional Rite II Eucharist worship service at 10:00 AM each Sunday. We offer a Children's Chapel the Second Sunday of the month at 11:00 AM.
We do not have nursery care at this time. However, we are an inter-generational church so all children are welcome in our services.
The Grace Church choir participates in the 10:00 AM service. Coffee hour and fellowship follow this service in the Parish Hall.
Our summer schedule is from the end of May thru Labor Day- A 10:00 AM Holy Eucharist Rite II service is offered followed by coffee hour. In addition, we offer an online service at 9:00 AM during the summer via our Facebook page.

Grace hosts a Community Prayer Service on the second Saturday of every month at 5:00 PM. During COVID, the Community Prayer Service was put on hold.
Inspired by the Celtic Service at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church in Richmond, this intimate service invites members from the community to join in healing prayer, communion, contemplative music, and readings. Although it is built upon the Episcopal tradition, visitors will find it a welcoming space for people from all denominations.
The Community Prayer Service is designed to open our hearts to the presence of God in a quiet, meditative space. This service is set apart from traditional worship and is unique to Goochland. Our table is open to everyone, and we invite you to come as you are and worship with us.
My lips will shout for joy when I sing praise to you— I whom you have delivered.
Psalm 71:23
The Music Ministry at Grace Church is a vibrant one where members come together to glorify God through music.

Our Anglican tradition recognizes sacraments as “outward and visible signs of inward and spiritual grace.” (The Book of Common Prayer, p.857)
Holy Baptism and the Eucharist (or Holy Communion) are the two great sacraments given by Christ to his Church. In addition, we honor the sacraments of Confirmation, Marriage, Reconciliation (private confession), Unction, and Ordination.
We believe in a loving, liberating, life-giving God. Our commitment to the sacraments reminds us of this abundant love offered to all people – no exceptions, We strive to follow the example of Jesus in our hearts, in our worship, and in our actions. Therefore, at Grace Church, we practice full inclusion in all of our sacraments for each and every person.
