Reformers believe that God saves people through His grace alone We believe that too — except He does that at the end of ours lives, based on what we have done with them.

We believe that too — except He does that at the end of ours lives, based on what we have done with them. Then it is not a "gift". You have "done" something for salvation. Whether it is exercising "faith" or taking the Eucharist, you are adding to the work of God.
