A Brief History

Grace congregation held its first service in 1920 in the River Edge Grammar School, with fifty-five charter members. In 1923 ground was broken for a new church at the corner of Lincoln Avenue and Bridge Street (now River Edge Road). In 1955, the congregation, having grown to over five hundred members, broke ground for a new building on Fifth Avenue (our current location).
