A once-thriving church dating to Stockton's 1850 infancy, Grace United Methodist, is closing. Succumbing to costly decisions and changing times.The Rev. Norm Mowery will give his last homily this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. from the pulpit at 1625 N. Lincoln St. After that, it’s lights out, candles too."It’s simply gut-wrenching," said Mowery, 68.The mood among 40 remaining flock members is "a lot of sadness," Mowery said.
