About Us
We’re encouraged that you desire to get to know us better. Grace Baptist Church of Arlington constituted on July 5, 2009. Many of the charter members had been members of Capitol Hill Baptist Church (CHBC) in Washington, DC previously and had a desire to advance the gospel in Arlington and Northern Virginia. Most of the charter members lived in Arlington or in other parts of Northern Virginia, but were commuting to Capitol Hill to hear the faithful preaching of God’s Word. Desirous to be a part of a church in the community in which they lived, these members began meeting together to sing, pray, and hear from God’s Word. In July of 2009, 31 believers covenanted with one another, constituted as a church, and called Mike Law Jr. as their pastor. The vision of Grace Baptist is the same that it was in the beginning – to glorify God by proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ in Arlington County and beyond, by God’s grace.

Our Services
Service Times
- Sunday
-
- 10:30am
- In our Sunday morning service, we want to sing rich, theologically true, biblically-based hymns and spiritual songs, read scripture, confess statements of faith that accurately summarize biblical teaching, pray biblically and corporately, and, most critically, preach from the Bible.
- 09:30am
- An hour before our corporate worship service, we meet to study Scripture and pray together. We spend the first half of our time together sharing prayer requests and praying for one another. The pastors encourage members to share major life events and important spiritual matters with the entire church during this time. We spend the second half in a Bible study or topical teaching time designed to engage our minds and encourage good deeds. During the teaching time, we will endeavor to study the New Testament while our Pastor is preaching through the Old Testament and vice-versa. From time-to-time, the pastors may also teach on an important Biblical topic, such as Biblical Manhood and Womanhood, parenting, money, or guidance and the will of God. We want the time to be interactive and welcome questions and comments from the body as we wrestle with the Word and its claims on our lives.
What to Expect
Leadership
Mike Law
Mike Law Jr. was called as the Senior Pastor of Grace Baptist Church of Arlington in July of 2009, when the church first constituted. Prior to Grace, Mike served as a Pastoral Assistant to Mark Dever at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. Mike was privileged to grow up in a Christian home and recalls sitting under a preacher as a child and being convinced of his sin and need for a Savior. Mike’s mother first thought he would enter the ministry when he was suspended from the public school bus at age 8 for sharing the Gospel, but it wasn’t until Mike was studying Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of Maryland that he was compelled to serve the Lord in full-time ministry. Mike and his wife have been married for seven years. They live in Alexandria with their four great kidsLocation & Directions
