Grace Episcopal Church

Faith

Built in 1873 at a cost of $3,500, Grace Episcopal Church replaced the Chapel of Ease, now located next door, and was part of the Dorchester Parish of the Episcopal Church. Its parent church was Old Trinity Episcopal Church in Church Creek, Maryland. Grace Church is an example of the Victorian Gothic architectural style that was popular at the time. Monthly religious services were held there during the summer months until 2009, when Dorchester Parish transferred the church and graveyard to the Grace Foundation of Taylor’s Island. The church is now used only for special occasions, including the annual service and meeting of the Grace Foundation. Formed in 1951 to help preserve the history of Taylor's Island, the Grace Foundation maintains the church and other buildings on the property.
