Grace Community Church, located on West Lee Street, is a dynamic non-denominational church housed in the former McIver School. In Greensboro , the name McIver has long been associated with providing a quality education for special needs students. Initially (1953), The Special School was started in a space provided by Greensboro College. The Special School was much needed and multiple growth spurts and by 1969, it moved into the above facility- then known as McIver School. In 1974, the program moved to its current site, the former Proximity Junior High School, and in 1994, changed its name to McIver Education Center.
With the school long gone from Lee Street and the building available, Grace Community Church opened its doors in 1995, always making it clear that people of all ethnicities and socioeconomic levels are welcome. The church was actually organized earlier, in the summer of 1987. As part of their local outreach, Grace Community is involved in helping Greensboro's homeless individuals receive hot meals. As part of their global mission, GCC gives a percentage of their budget to Faith Promise Pledges. Currently, they have 24 international missionaries in the church. They'd love to have you stop by. Dress is casual.
