Grace Ministries Outreach Center
T.E.A.M. Grace
T.E.A.M. (Tutoring, Enrichment, Art, Music) Grace is our afterschool enrichment program. The purpose of T.E.A.M. Grace is to serve the community by providing a quality, faith-based afterschool enrichment program for children, in which they are enabled to grow academically and personally in a safe and secure environment through academic assistance, music and the arts.
We have finished our first year in partnership with Winchester Public Schools, particulary with Quarles Elementary School.

Life Long Learning Center
Grace opened the Life Long Learning Center in the old G and M Music building. Grace and other community groups use this resource including ESL classes and Narcotics Anonymous.
The Godfrey Miller Home
located at 28 S. Loudoun Street, has been serving our community with a wide variety of internal and outreach services to the adults of Winchester and nearby counties since 1948. The Godfrey Miller Home was a retirement home until 1973. After it became impractical to operate as a residence for elderly ladies, the Board secured court approval to open an adult fellowship center in 1976. For more than a quarter of a century, the Godfrey Miller Fellowship Center has provided a wide variety of services and activities to the greater Winchester area. Our goal is to make participants happy and healthy. Thanks to the strong leadership of Pastor Eisenberg, Grace Lutheran Church took on this outreach to the community that goes beyond just serving Lutherans. Pastors from Grace Lutheran, board members and volunteers have been the foundation for this ministry. Judge Robert K. Woltz, Grace member and a board member of the fellowship center for 55 years is just one example of this support and commitment. Outstanding computer training classes at the Center are provided by Ed Rittenhouse, a volunteer from Grace, who has a lengthy teaching background at the college level. These computer classes are the most popular activity at the Center.Health fellowship and educational services currently serve city and county residents from all walks of life. There is no membership fee to be active at the Center and our doors, to a caring homelike Christian environment are open to all. Hours of operation: Monday through Thursday, 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. For more information contact the Director, Sharon Thornton at 667-5869 or visit the website at www.godfreymillerhome.org.
