SOUTHWOOD COLLEGE

Mission

Grace College exists to help college students FIND & FOLLOW JESUS. These 4 core values mark our college ministry: 

Abiding

No empty wells. Jesus tells us in John 15:5 that apart from Him we can do nothing – so we do everything we do in dependence upon Him. 

empowering

We grow dandelions. A dandelion is the most resilient flower; it can be uprooted and planted anywhere. We want to empower our students to be lifelong disciple-making disciples, wherever they end up.

inviting

One invite away. We’re always challenging our students to ask, “Who might just be one invite away?” It could be that life transformation, or salvation, or finding church community, might just be one invite away.  

owning

That ain’t right. We aren’t a ministry filled with consumers, but producers. Our students have a stake and view their role in this ministry as not just employees, but as owners.

Opportunities

Events

Events are a great way to get to know Grace, connect with the college ministry, and make new friends who can help you FIND & FOLLOW JESUS. 

Grace Groups

Grace Groups are communities of college students who meet weekly as they connect relationally, grow biblically, and engage missionally to find and follow Jesus together. There are co-ed and same-gender group options, and groups meet in the evenings on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays.

serving Opportunities

At Grace, we believe that service is a vital part of our mission to raise up next-generation leaders to reach our world for Christ.

Mission Trips

At Grace Bible Church, our mission is to help people FIND & FOLLOW JESUS. Our fourth pillar is "Every Nation." As a church, we strive to live out this pillar by committing to cultivating and multiplying church movements in international university centers to reach the unreached. Throughout the year, we offer opportunities for all ages to participate in the gospel with long-term partners across the United States and abroad.
