Welcome

Welcome to the First Grace Brethren Church of Altoona Website feel free to look around. While you are here I have a important question to ask you. Are you saved? Do you know how to be saved? Check out our [God's Free Gift] page for more information.

I would also like to extend an invitation to you to come and join us here at the First Grace Brethren Church of Altoona. I believe you will find an atmosphere of love and support that is unequaled in any other group. The reason is the Love of God that flows through the People and Ministries of our local Church. If you need a ride to church feel free to ask. Call me at the church office at (814) 942-7642 or e-mail the office at altoona@fgbca.org by Saturday of each week.

I would love to hear from you so please feel free to contact me with your comments, needs, or prayer request. Thanks again for stopping by.

God Bless,

Pastor John C. Townsend
