We are a United Methodist Community of Faith. Resurrection Grace was formed by the unifying of First Church Melbourne and St. Mark's UMC, bringing together a 140-year legacy on the Space Coast. We are deeply rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, emphasizing grace, accountable discipleship, and making more and mature disciples who reflect Jesus's love in the community.

Absolutely not. At Resurrection Grace, we firmly believe that you belong before you believe. We are a "safe harbor for honest faith," meaning we make room for questions and contradictions without shame. Whether you are a long-time believer, a hopeful traditionalist, or a seeker exploring faith with hard questions, your story is safe here.

Recovery Dinner Church is a unique, casual, and modern worship experience built around a shared meal. Deeply connected with the local recovery community, it is a space where people find healing, community, and connection around the table.

Yes! Our Resurrection Kids and Nursery ministry offers a safe, engaging environment for your children, led by prescreened staff and volunteers. Childcare is available, and elementary students are dismissed after the offering during the 9:00 AM service for age-appropriate lessons, games, and activities to help them learn about God's love.

We say that "rows invite, but circles disciple". While we love worshiping together in rows on Sunday, we believe deep transformation happens in smaller circles. Your best next steps are to Plan a Visit, attend our low-pressure "Coffee with the Pastors" gathering, and let us help you find a circle—such as a Community Group, Sunday School class, Men’s or Women’s group, or Alpha.

We believe that service is how our theology becomes visible in the city. We actively serve our neighbors locally and globally through partnerships with local organizations like Providence Connect, and through our bi-annual church-wide outreach days called "The Church Has Left the Building".

At Resurrection Grace, we believe that radical generosity is how our theology becomes visible in the city. Giving is not about meeting budget needs or feeling pressured; it is a heartfelt response to the grace we have received and a beautiful spiritual practice that helps our hearts grow. When we offer our gifts, we join together to let love become visible locally and globally. It is one of the many ways we express our trust in God, care for our neighbors, and walk a shared journey of faith.

We believe that your giving is a personal journey between you and God. While the biblical principle of tithing (giving a tenth) is a wonderful and healthy starting point for those wondering how to begin, we encourage you to give joyfully, without pressure or shame. Tithing is an act of worship and gratitude that helps us hold space for others. Whether you are supporting our local ministries, giving to specific community outreach projects, or partnering with global causes you believe in, every gift helps us serve as a safe harbor for our city.
