Allendale County is located in the lowcountry of South Carolina, approximately one hour between Augusta and Beaufort. The economic conditions and history surrounding Allendale County captured the attention of Grace Church and led us to this partnership over a decade ago.  Each year, our commitment to the people of Allendale grows as we continuously see how God moves and makes himself known.

We believe communities are best transformed through the gospel-centered work of their own local churches, and we desire to serve with them on their terms. Grace Church has been invited into ministry in Allendale by two local churches—Fairfax First Baptist Church and Nazarene Missionary Baptist Church. Our goal is to provide people and resources as an asset in empowering the local church’s vision for their community.

The leaders of these churches desire to invest in the youth of the area to create a self-sustaining community. To do this, they focus on providing opportunities for children and teens to know Christ, know Scripture, and become leaders in their areas of influence through community events and a summer camp program, BridgeBuilders.
