Grace Chapel

What Grace Chapel does

Grace Chapel is a privately held, non-denominational Christian church organization operating across four physical campuses in the Greater Boston area — Lexington (headquarters), Wilmington, Watertown, and Foxborough — plus a fifth Online Campus that streams live Sunday services at 9am and provides on-demand content globally. The church serves a distributed base of individual congregants through Sunday worship services (offering both Classic and Contemporary formats), a comprehensive life-stage ministry portfolio covering children (Kidstown, nursery through 5th grade), students (StuMin for grades 6–12), young adults, men, women, older adults, and specialized care/support programs including Stephen Ministry, GriefShare, DivorceCare, AA/Al-Anon, and foster and adoptive family support. Its operating model is built on volunteer-powered small groups, pastoral care teams, and 48 mission partnerships worldwide spanning theological education, relief and development, and Bible translation.

The technology layer is conventional church SaaS rather than a proprietary platform: the Grace Chapel Connect mobile app (iOS/Android, built on the Bluebridge Churches platform) handles news, sermon messages, event calendars, and QR-code Kidstown check-in; live streaming and on-demand video are delivered via YouTube, including an ASL-translated channel; and digital giving runs on PushPay with Venmo integration alongside a planned-giving program for stock, mutual fund, and deferred gifts. The organization also operates content channels — the Grace Out Loud Podcast hosted by Pastor Dom Bronico and Katie Gaus, and A Thoughtful Faith Blog — to extend reach beyond physical attendance.

Revenue is generated entirely through voluntary tithes, offerings, and planned giving from congregants; services are free and no pricing is publicly disclosed. The organization is governed by pastoral leadership with no parent company, venture capital, or private equity backing. Operating geographies are concentrated in Massachusetts (New England) for in-person ministry, with global reach through the online campus and 48 international mission partnerships across Africa, the Middle East, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean.
