Our History
Introduction
Welcome to the history of Grace Church Frisco, formerly known as Turning Point Church of Galveston.
As a pillar of the community for over a century, we have played an integral role in the spiritual growth and development of countless individuals and families. Our journey is one of transformation, faith, and unwavering commitment to serving God and our community.
Founding Years
The origins of Grace Church Frisco can be traced back to the early 1900s when a group of devoted believers sought to establish a place of worship that would cater to the needs of the growing community. In those humble beginnings, a small chapel was built, and regular Sunday services began to take place.
Over the years, the congregation grew in size and strength, attracting individuals from various backgrounds who were united by their shared faith and belief in the power of community and fellowship.
Expansion and Growth
As the city of Galveston expanded, so did the need for a larger place of worship. In the mid-20th century, a new church building was constructed to accommodate the growing congregation and provide them with a spiritual home. This marked a significant milestone in the history of Grace Church Frisco.
Alongside the physical expansion, our church also witnessed spiritual growth as we deepened our commitment to spreading the message of love, hope, and faith. Our clergy and dedicated volunteers worked tirelessly to create a welcoming and inclusive environment where all individuals could find solace, support, and spiritual nourishment.
Community Outreach
One of the cornerstones of Grace Church Frisco has always been our unwavering dedication to serving the community. Recognizing the importance of giving back and making a positive impact in the lives of others, we have implemented numerous outreach programs over the years.
Our church has been actively involved in supporting local charities, organizing food drives, providing shelter for the homeless, and partnering with other organizations to address the needs of the less fortunate. We firmly believe that faith without action is incomplete, and thus, our commitment to social justice and community service remains a top priority.
Adapting to the Changing Times
As we entered the 21st century, the world around us rapidly evolved due to advancements in technology and shifting cultural values. Grace Church Frisco recognized the need to adapt and embrace these changes in order to effectively minister to the needs of the modern generation.
We embraced the power of digital platforms to enhance our outreach and communication efforts. Our website became a hub of information, resources, and inspiration for both our local congregation and those seeking spiritual guidance from afar. We began offering online services and virtual Bible studies, ensuring that our message of love and faith could reach far and wide.

Today, Grace Church Frisco stands as a beacon of hope and a source of spiritual upliftment for the Galveston community. Our commitment to fostering a strong sense of community, spreading love and compassion, and nurturing personal growth remains steadfast.
