COMING SOON:
FREE GRACE UNITED WHAT CHEER!
We are excited to announce the opening of our new church in What Cheer! Our mission is to bring God’s love to this wonderful community and create a welcoming environment where everyone can connect and fellowship. Let’s build a family together, united in our commitment to serving others and sharing God’s grace. Stay tuned for updates as we get closer to opening day. We look forward to meeting you soon!

Each congregation of Free Grace United is a distinct local church. They vary in size, demographics, and cultural aesthetics. Each has its own story, its own pastors, and its own ministries. In deciding which congregation to join, we encourage you to start by visiting the one closest to you.
What do we envision this new church will look like?
- A church for people that don’t “do” church.
- A church with a community/family atmosphere.
- A church with excellent modern worship music that honors Jesus.
- A church where everyday average people can feel welcome (not just religious people).
- A church where people are loved (no matter their story) and not judged.
- A church where the Bible is taught and people get to process God at their own pace.
- A church with events and activities that bless the whole community.
- A church that offers people a choice each week to follow Jesus and follow Him in baptism.

What is VBS?
“VBS” stands for “Vacation Bible School”, and it’s basically a week-long evening summer camp for kids. VBS has been making fun memories and sharing the hope of Jesus in communities around the globe for decades, and it’s coming to What Cheer this summer!
