Welcome to Grace
Welcome to our website. My name is Dermot and together with my lovely wife Debra and the most amazing team ever, we pastor Grace Church, a local Tasmanian church here in Clarence Plains. The Clarence Plains area comprises the suburbs, Clarendon Vale, Glebe Hill, Oakdowns and Rokeby. Situated 15 minutes from the Hobart CBD we’re easy to get to by car and we’re also on the Metro Bus route.
On our site you’ll find information about our church and our services. We’re a Christian church that believes in all generations and to that end we run a vibrant kids program every Sunday during our service as well as a terrific Youth program for our teenagers every Friday evening. Our regular men’s breakfasts and ladies events are always a hit.
We love our local community and have been busy renovating the old Rokeby Tavern to create a lovely community meeting space that serves the wonderful efforts of local community organisations and residents. It’s our gift to our community. You can find out more about the Grace Centre HERE.
Church is all about connecting people to Jesus and each other and we work hard to make it as easy as possible for that to happen. We’d love to have you visit with us and want to take this opportunity to invite you to check us out this Sunday. You can find directions to our church service at the Emmanuel School Performing Arts Centre on our Services page. If you have any questions about our church or Christianity in general, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
We’d love to see you this Sunday!
