About Grace Manor
In the early years of the 20th century, Mrs. Emily Holmquist, burdened with the knowledge that there were many aging individuals needing love, care, and housing, began sharing her vision with members of various churches. This concern grew, and in February of 1906, she organized the Women's Union Relief Society for the purpose of helping the elderly, and finding a way to extend Christian love and care to those in need.
A large, beautiful building - indeed the very same building which stands today, known as Grace Manor - was purchased in N.E. Minneapolis, MN to fulfill this purpose. In 1915, it was incorporated as a non profit organization. Though the name of our outreach has changed from "Scandinavian Union Relief Home" to "Union Home for the Aged" to "Christian Union Home" to Grace Manor" and now "Grace Manor Ministries", family and the original society members are continuing to join hands with others in order to carry on the tradition of Christian service and love started by Emily Holmquist many years ago.
Grace Manor Ministries has continued its legacy for over 100 years.

The women of Minnesota Adult & Teen Challenge have resided at the Grace Manor Campus since 2006. All of the women that have lived at the house on the hill, have cherished their time there. They say it is a home, a home that some of them have never had. We are so honored and blessed to have them apart of our family. Grace Manor truly is a house of God and a place of hope, family and restoration. Miracles happen within these walls.
We hold annual outreach events each year:
Svenskarnesdag picnic in June, and the
Christmas pageant in December.
Our goal is to continue the legacy of Emily Holmquist's ministry to help, care and love those in need.
We are asking for your continued support in prayer to carry on our mission of showing God's Grace In Action.
