Other Outreach Ministries
of Grace Covenant Church


Soli Deo Gloria (to God alone be the glory) Chapel at Bosselman's Truck Plaza
is a ministry of Grace Covenant Church and Trucker's Christian Chapel Ministries (TCCM). TCCM was formed several decades ago when Glenn Cope, a Christian truck driver felt the call of God to get off the road and start Christian chapels in truck stops across the nation.  He was burdened for Christian drivers who could rarely make it to church as well as those who were lost.

In October of 1993, Glenn Cope came to the church that Nick and Marti Tubbs were attending and presented the ministry at Bosselman Truck Stop.  Nick and Marti were in between churches and felt that God was leading them to help get the ministry started. Although they had no intention of remaining with the ministry, after some months they began to feel more comfortable and had begun to receive appreciation from the drivers for the strong Bible teaching. 

Today, Soli Deo Gloria Chapel is both Reformed and "old school", conservative Presbyterian. This separates the chapel from every other chapel in the nation. Besides leading a Sunday morning service, Nick and Marti also spend one-on-one time with drivers answering questions, counseling and prayer.


Mission to the Omaha Native Tribe is an annual event in which we send a group of teenagers and adults to the Omaha Reservation to teach VBS and complete various service projects.
