Grace and Truth House of Prayer

Can you sense the spirit of faith residing here at 802 East 37th Street? This is Grace and Truth House of Prayer. Grace and Truth House of Prayer stands as a testament to the enduring power of belief. I want to share a story with you, a glimpse into another Savannah house of worship. It involves the United House of Prayer for All People and their centennial celebration in 2019. Their founder, Bishop C.M. Grace, known as “Sweet Daddy Grace,” actually began his southern ministry right here in Savannah in 1926. He held tent revivals on the corners of Bismark and Burroughs Streets. Imagine the scene. A bustling crowd gathers under the canvas tent. The air crackles with anticipation as “Sweet Daddy Grace” preaches his message of rebirth and spiritual purity. This vibrant energy echoes the spirit of faith found here at Grace and Truth House of Prayer. Although Grace and Truth House of Prayer has its own unique identity, the story of “Sweet Daddy Grace” and the United House of Prayer offers a fascinating parallel. It highlights the rich tapestry of faith that has shaped Savannah’s history. Both stand as testaments to the power of belief to bring people together and offer solace. So as you stand before Grace and Truth House of Prayer, remember those early tent revivals. Feel the echoes of those fervent prayers and the unwavering faith that built this sacred space.
