What We Believe

GracePointe is an Independent Baptist church that holds to the authority and sufficiency of Scripture. We believe the Bible is the inspired, preserved Word of God and use the King James Version for all preaching and teaching. Salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone, and the mission of the church is to evangelize, disciple, and edify believers.

Our Story

GracePointe Baptist Church began with a small group of believers gathering to pray, study the Bible, and seek God’s direction for a new church plant in Northern Virginia. As God opened doors and brought families together, GracePointe was established with a vision to preach Christ, build community, and be a lighthouse in this growing region.

While we currently meet in flexible locations, God is leading us toward a future worship space where we can expand ministry, strengthen outreach, and continue growing together.
