Access & Assistance
Wheel Chair Access From The East Side: From the east, or front of the church, handicapped parking is located in front of the building along with a ramp from the sidewalk to a patio. From the patio there are two glass doors opening into a large hallway. A right turn takes you to the sanctuary. Turn left to find the bathrooms, parish hall, or when going to the Carriage House or the Arnold House.
Wheel Chair Access From The West Side: From the west, or Arnold House parking lot, all of the spaces are handicapped friendly. The sidewalk from the parking lot will take you around the front of the Arnold House to the “Breeze Way Intersection.” A wide ramp to the right takes you into the Arnold House. Proceed straight ahead to enter the Carriage House, or turn left to enter a wide hallway connecting all areas in the main building. The parish hall will be immediately on your right, bathrooms are down the hall on your right and the sanctuary is found down the hall to your left. If you are looking for another area or activity just ask.
Hearing Assistance: There are individual radio receivers found in the narthex (foyer) immediately before entering the nave (sanctuary). They have “ear buds” that fit easily and comfortably into your ears and the volume is adjustable to fit your needs. Just ask an usher where they are or for help in using one.
Large Print Bulletins: Large-print bulletins are available for all services. The content is identical to the small-print version.
Forget Your Reading Glasses? No problem! We have a variety to choose from in the narthex (foyer) immediately before entering the sanctuary. Just ask an usher which drawer they are in.
Something Else? Is there something else you need in order to make your visit to Grace more enjoyable and fulfilling? If so, please tell an usher, or The Rev. Bob Blackwell before you leave. Alternatively, you can contact Felicia, our parish secretary, at felicia_wasilews@bellsouth.net or 256-734-6212. She will make sure the information gets to the right person!
