Grace Episcopal Church - white plains - White Plains (NY)

5 /5 Jane Dunkin: Met the loveliest lady who works in the Grace Church soup kitchen. Her name is Ana, and kindness, generosity, and yes, grace flow from this woman. She is helpful and ready to give you a smile, a cup of coffee, or even directions, as in my case. Watched this woman walking her way around the room laughing, smiling, and talking to everyone. I walked up to her and asked for directions. She didnt know the answer, but she would find out for me. Offered me coffee, a sandwich, and a sweet treat ( brownie piece) while she got the answer for me . I declined because I was already late for an appointment. A few minutes later, she came back with directions for me. I thanked her, and she gave me a brownie piece and told me to return it if I ever needed anything. Patted my arm and smiled, then someone called her name, and she said goodbye. I had been having a hot, frustrating morning until that moment. In less than 5 minutes, this woman offered me food, warmth, and kindness. It made my day. Nice to know that there are people in the world like her.

5 /5 Rosanne B: Really enjoyed my worship experience as a visitor to this church. Had the opportunity to attend a service that was a hybrid English and Spanish worship, on my only other visit, I attended the English service. While combining the English and Spanish services may be atypical it was still awesome to experience. My experience was of a church that is vibrant, socially conscious, diverse, and welcoming. (There may be a need to secure public parking to attend. I am unsure whether members have some allowance to park in a nearby lot.)

4 /5 C H: The inside of the church has been changed but the intent of the environment is helpful and giving. This church has classes for the youth and a religious instruction school. They do have selected masses as well. This church seems to do a lot for those who are homeless. Its been here for many years and is a staple in the city of White Plains. It is like a community center for those who are disadvantaged. They have a great support staff to help rejuvenate the lives of those who need a quick start. I would recommend finding out more information on it, if you know of anyone in crisis mode. They have a website to refer to for their weekly calendar, events, and masses.

5 /5 Ava Marie Clarke: Church has so much character, inside and out. Beautiful stained-glass windows. Has 2 overflow rooms with audio-visual capabilities for large events. Municipal parking nearby (on the same block)
