One of the oldest structures in the city of Brampton, people have been gathering to worship at Grace United Church since 1867.

 

In 1822 a Wesleyan Methodist congregation started worshipping in the new community of Brampton. In 1865 they took a leap of faith and purchased a lot for $250.00. Two years later they opened a grand church, 40 by 60 feet in size with a bell tower topped by a steeple visible for some distance. As the congregation has grown over the years, so has the building. In 1887 the sanctuary was expanded on both sides to accommodate several hundred worshippers. As young people looked to the church for recreational activities in the earlier decades of the 1900's, Grace responded by building a large gym. Today many community groups depend on the space that Grace can offer. From AA groups to violin and yoga classes, the historic Grace United Church continues to serve the people of Brampton.
