Grace Episcopal Church

Grace Episcopal Church is the largest rural Episcopal Church in the State of Virginia.  It was the first church built in Kilmarnock and was consecrated by Bishop Johns in 1852.  At that time, Grace Church, Historic Christ Church, St. Mary's Whitechapel, and Trinity Church were all served by a single rector.  In 1973, Grace Church was given independence and oversight of Historic Christ Church (www.christchurch1735.org) and the other two congregations were able to call their own rector.  Today, Grace Church maintains its ties with Historic Christ Church and continues to celebrate Holy Eucharist there at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday mornings in the summer.
