Grace Place Clay Peck

As lead pastor of Grace Place, Clay Peck has built a community centered on service to God and others. He founded the church in 1996 in Berthoud, Colorado, out of a desire to share the Gospel and reach out to those who had separated from God and faith. The congregation began as a small group of friends dedicated to worship and a focus on grace, though its numbers quickly grew to more than 200 congregants. Grace Place now welcomes 1,000 attendees at several weekend worship services and its many fellowship meetings and outreach events in the community.

Dedicated to serving God's children, the church also sponsors a number of adoption ministries. One such ministry, Refuge, allows women to come together and discuss the process of adopting or becoming foster parents. Pastor Clay Peck brings personal experience to this process, having adopted a 16-year-old girl from Ukraine in 2011. The child, Julia Peck, requested baptism on Father's Day in 2012 and continues to heal as a member of her new family.
