Many Faces
We have thousands of people connected to our churches. They all have a story of encountering Jesus, being a part of his church and how both have impacted their lives. We invite you to spend some time with some of them to see their faces and get a glimpse into their faith. And then tell us YOUR faith story!

What we do as a classis
#1
We work together and support each other
We pray for, celebrate with, cry with and listen to each other. We offer help to each other when we are able to do so. We also partner together in ministry when it is helpful.
#2
We keep each other on track
We hold each other accountable to stick to the historic Christian faith in our church’s teaching and actions.
#3
Connect with our denomination
Our classis is an essential link between our local congregations and our denominational ministries and agencies.
A monthly worship gathering
Worship Circle
join us!
We’d love for you to join us each month at a Worship Circle gathering. It's a time to pause, reflect and experience peace together.
These gatherings rotate between different Classis Grand Rapids South churches each month and are open to everyone who is seeking a moment to connect with God and others. It’s a space for all who are longing for community and peace. Whether you’re looking to find stillness or deepen relationships, this evening is for you.
If your church is looking for a simple way to host something impactful, we’d love to bring the Worship Circle to your space. We’ve got the full band—just need someone to open the doors. Let us know if you’re interested in partnering to host a future night of worship!
