About Grace Community of Tyler

Grace Community of Tyler is the umbrella organization for Grace Community Church with three churches in Tyler (two English language campuses and one Spanish language campus) and one in Lindale and Grace Community School including Grace Early Education and grades JK-12, with two campuses in Tyler and one Early Education in Lindale. Grace Community of Tyler employs over 450 people with a combined budget of $25 million. 

Grace Community Church is focused on authentic faith while not being too concerned with the externals of religion. Our mission is to Be and Make Disciples of Jesus Christ for the glory of God.  We are committed to becoming people who are actively involved in worship, intimately connected in community, and passionately engaged in God’s mission. As one church meeting in multiple locations, we believe we have a unique ministry in East Texas.  Grace Community Church is an elder-led church and our senior pastor is Doug Clark. 

Grace Community School’s mission is to assist Christian families in educating, equipping, and encouraging their children to influence the world for Christ. Our school is home to more than 1,000 students in JrK through 12th grade and offers an outstanding education where the whole student is developed according to his or her gifts, talents, and passions. We want to teach Jesus, and equip students to discover and live out God’s unique purposes for their lives.

Grace Early Education opens our doors each day to 450 children, and from the playground to the classroom we apply Christ-centered love to educate and grow them into who God made them to be. We seek to provide holistic care, helping children grow spiritually, emotionally, and intellectually.
