Grace & Mercy Holiness Church
Grace and Mercy Holiness Church was founded on February 3, 2022, in Worcester, Massachusetts, during a dinner fellowship between two families seeking a deeper walk with God. That dinner soon grew into a Bible study that began on February 8, 2022, at a Comfort Inn in Auburn, MA.
The Word of God was shared, and the Lord began revealing Himself powerfully. Interest in the Bible study grew quickly, and with it, the need for a larger, dedicated space for worship. On March 4, 2022, Minister Corey Vick was invited to preach at Living Waters Apostolic Church.
During that service, the Holy Ghost moved mightily. A soul was filled, and Minister Vick was ordained and sealed by the Lord to pastor this newly forming ministry.
Within weeks, the Lord led us to a space at 91 Stafford Street, a "ford" or shallow crossing place-symbolic of transition. But God had bigger plans. Through prophetic encouragement at a revival, Pastor Vick was led to believe for more-and God opened the door to 911 Main Street, a historic building now serving as the home of Grace and Mercy Holiness Church.
During our first year, two people were filled with the Holy Ghost, and five were baptized in Jesus' name. As Psalms 127:1 says: "Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it..."
We are growing not by our own strength, but by His grace and mercy!
