Military & First Responders Outreach

Veterans have made incredible sacrifices and face unique challenges both during active duty and when they come home. We offer truth and encouragement from the Bible and the good news of Jesus Christ. His life-changing power can be seen in the lives of our military ministry leaders who are veterans themselves. They understand the difficulties involved in re-adjusting to civilian life and dealing with combat-related stress. As such, they are uniquely gifted to share their experiences with other veterans and to guide them to answers from the Bible.

Military life is difficult. Even amidst a structured life, it can be hard to find spiritual stability. We want to do everything we can to help our military friends and family members. We reach out to active duty service men and women through mailings and care packages and partner with chaplains to support them as they support service memebrs. We reach out to military families in the surrounding communities through prayer and encouragement.

Grace Church of Mentor values the freedom and safety we enjoy in the United States. We understand that without the service of firefighters, paramedics, police, and EMTs, our society would be much less stable, and it would be much more difficult to freely practice our religious beliefs. That’s why we seek to honor and help those who protect our freedoms.  

‍

We can never repay the sacrifices our first responders and their families have made. Nor do we pretend that we can all relate to the unique challenges that you face. We can, however, offer truth from the Bible and encouragement from men who have similar experience themselves.  

‍

Our goal is to reach out to first responders and their families in the surrounding communities through prayer and encouragement and to provide spiritual encouragement and accountability in our church family here at Grace.
