I was blessed tremendously by Grace Family Church of RI by their Biblical Counseling Classes. I am now a Certified Biblical Counselor and owe it all to the fantastic courses at this church. Pastor Cozzi is an amazing man of God and an excellent teacher of the Word. I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to spend countless hours at Grace church learning the Word and how to apply it to save lives!! I will be forever grateful to Grace Family Church of RI!!
I am honored and proud to write this review for Grace Family Church. Pastor Lucianno Cozzi is an incredible and effective Christian counselor. He has provided us with counseling during some very difficult times, and I honestly don't know how we would have gotten through these times without his help. I have been a Christian my entire life and have met many priests, pastors and ministers and I must say that Pastor Cozzi is true to what an ideal pastor should be. He is selfless, honest, vastly knowledgeable in the Bible and is willing to teach others. My husband and I took many biblical courses with him and it was absolutely life changing. I also would like to state that Pastor Cozzi constantly helps this community and leads a very loving and kind congregation. This church is so vastly needed and the community is so grateful for Grace Church and Pastor Cozzi. In addition to his services to the community, Pastor Cozzi always makes himself available to anyone who needs him. I have referred several other people to him for various reasons ( grief counseling etc).
This may be a smaller congregation but it is very much alive and very loving. There is a love for the community and a desire to help. Whether it is volunteering at the local mission or raising donations to help three homeless shelters in the area or providing counseling to families in need in our community and beyond there is a love for the community we are in. It is like a family. When one member rejoices we all rejoice. When one suffers, we all suffer with , pray and serve them.
Whenever I visit this church, I see a lively, diverse community worshiping together, even if there's no formal service. The members of this community join in outreach with other churches on various projects to benefit the neighborhood. In addition to pastoral ministries, Grace Family Church offers counseling, training seminars, as well as spiritual resources. The Bible studies I attended were informative and exciting with lots of give and take discussion. This tiny store-front church is very big on hospitality. I always feel welcomed and valued.
