Grace Lutheran Church started as a mission congregation sponsored by the Southeastern Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). We received a Mission Developer (pastor) about six years ago. Our mission developer is Pastor Craig Bowyer.

On December 2nd, 2001, Grace became an organized congregation of the ELCA (no longer a mission congregation). We called Pastor Craig Bowyer to be our Pastor.

In the recent past, we have used as many as three worship locations: one in Foley, Alabama, and two in Gulf Shores. But on Palm Sunday, 2001, our worshiping communities were married to create one centrally-located church -- about three miles North of Gulf Shores. We began meeting at the chapel of the Baldwin Funeral Home, 6848 Gulf Shores Parkway (highway 59).

On January 27th, 2003, we relocated "south of the bridge" to the corner of West 23rd Ave. and West 4th St. in Gulf Shores. See Maps and Driving Directions for this
new worship location.
