Grace Episcopal Church is a center for worship and fellowship, a school for discipleship and stewardship and a community for healing and outreach.

The parish's original founding statement says "where all may come without regard for temporal estate, freely and without fee, as brethren come one to another."

After World War II, the parish expanded and moved to Alexandria's outskirts, constructing the current church building in gothic style in 1948.

Today, the parish continues to proclaim itself to be a place "where all may worship freely by God's grace."

Grace Episcopal School accepts children ages 3 years old to 5th grade of all faiths and ethnicities.
