Welcome to Rev. Gracie Gray
Pastor Gracie is eager to join in ministry alongside the people of St. Paul UMC. Originally born in Chattanooga, TN, and a lifelong United Methodist, she is passionate about helping cultivate loving and welcoming church spaces for all people. She graduated from Carson-Newman University in 2018 with a Bachelor's degree in Religion and a minor in music, and later attended Candler School of Theology at Emory University, earning her Master's of Divinity in 2021.
She has served in the Holston Conference since 2020 and was ordained as an elder in full connection in June 2025. In her free time, Pastor Gracie enjoys singing, watching musicals and movies, and taking walks in the neighborhood with her husband Sean. Pastor Gracie and Sean were recently married in December of 2025. Both Sean and Gracie, along with their cat, Dunkin', are excited about this new chapter of ministry in Wytheville.
"Six-week Sermon Series"
Sunday, July 1th - begins a six-week sermon series titled, "Passages that Pump Me Up!" This sermon series is one that gets our new pastor pumped up to preach! This is a
fun way to get to know her and what she enjoys preaching about from
the scriptures!
VBS August 7 and 8th
Mark your calendars for our VBS with Wytheville Presbyterian Church. The dates are August 7 & 8th.
Friday night we will have an open house where families can come register their kids for VBS and enjoy some other activities for the family. Drop by anytime between 6 - 8pm.
Saturday we will have VBS for kids. It starts at 9 am and pickup at 3 pm (Pre-K & K will be picked up after their lunch).
This will be an exciting few days and we hope parents can drop off their kids to be loved on while you go grab brunch or run some errands for the week.
