Did You Know You Can Listen to Grace Sermons On Line? Many of Pastor Dennis’ sermons, along with many of Pastor Scott’s sermons from earlier this year, are available to you to listen to on our church website. Just go to https://gracetripoli.org/category/sermons/ and click on the sermon according to the date you wish you listen to. Some of our members who are camping on weekends or who have gone South during the winter months find this especially meaningful. Thank you to Kent Davis for recording these messages and for posting them on the Grace website.
