If you are planning a summer vacation to the Grand Canyon-South Rim, please make plans to join us for an interdenominational sunset worship service on the rim, sponsored by “A Christian Ministry in the National Parks” (ACMNP). Each service is about 30 minutes long and includes singing of hymns and contemporary worship, Scripture reading, a brief message, and an offering.

Since 1953, Grand Canyon Community Church has partnered ACMNP to support college and seminary students who spend a summer working full-time in the park while providing relational ministry and worship services on the rim of the Grand Canyon and in the campground. Each summer, 14-18 ministry staff members come to the Grand Canyon to work full time in the park and minister to local residents and park visitors alike.
