Potter’s House Ministries is located at 311 Creek Ridge Road, on the corner of Randleman Road, a stone’s throw from Stephanie’s. We arrived, just as Potter’s House was finishing with their Sunday service a couple of weeks ago. Potter’s House was founded by Bishop Manwell Grady and his wife, Linda. While Bishop Grady has served in pastoral ministry for over 16 years, it is not entirely clear from their website, how long Potter’s House has been open. They are a Trinity based church with no apparent affiliation with a specific denomination. When, on one of their web pages, they talk about ” a sacred episcopal service of consecration installation,” likely, “episcopal” is referring to the bishop/overseer of the church and does not imply denomination. Bishop Grady was installed on April 2006, a little over five years ago. Perhaps that’s when the church began.

If you are interested, services begin promptly at 11:00 am on Sundays and, at least the Sunday we were in the neighborhood, are still in session at 1:00. The Gradys are very involved not only with Potter’s House but also with Christian broadcasting in the Greensboro community. As lovers of history, we wish their website had a more about the history of the actual building that houses the services as well as how the church came in to being and the history of what they have accomplished to date. In their defense, we’re sure Bishop and Pastor Grady would be happy to tell us if we called on them personally, or even better, if we attended a service! Happy Sacred Sunday to all of you.

We’re off to find some patriotic, Memorial Day events.
