In 1901 the congregation purchased the current location, the cornerstone was laid in 1902, and the first service was held in October 1903. Financially, the church started with nothing but faith in God and a few loyal members. Since 1902, Grace Reformed Church has been entirely self-supporting. A brief history of Grace Reformed United Church of Christ, a list of ministers (1898-2010), a list of organists, and a list of choir directors precede the records. Records are grouped by Members, Baptisms, Marriages, and Deaths. Member entries include full name, date and how the person was received into membership. Baptism entries include the date of baptism, the full name of the child, names of parents (as available), and the date of birth. Marriage entries include the date of marriage, the full name of the groom, and the full name of the bride. Entries are listed chronologically. Death entries include the full name of the deceased, age, the date of death, and the place of burial (as available). A full-name index adds to the value of this work.
