Our story
Twenty three years of grace
Grace Place Church was founded in November 2003 by Pastor Arthur Shadwick. For twenty years we served Hackensack, known for community care celebrations like mobile food pantries, back to school supplies, and family resources.
Today we call 319 Passaic Street in Garfield home, carrying that same heart for our neighbors into a new city. Same mission. Next generation.
