3:00pm- UU Youth Event (Hamner Hall)

During months with a fifth Sunday (starting October 30th) we will have a combined Sunday School gathering in the MAC during the 11 o'clock hour. All classes and ages are invited to attend. These "lightly organized" gatherings will serve as a fellowship time for our GCBC folks to get to know each other better.

- A six week short course will be offered during the Sunday School hour beginning September 18th. The topic will be Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, with the discussion to be led by Chris White. Youth and adults are all welcome to attend (especially teachers who need a break!!). The meeting room will be announced by the first Sunday of September.

During GCBC children and youth activities on Sunday afternoons a small group time for parents will be held. Details are still being worked out, but all parents of children and youth are welcome to participate.

Help Needed At Rescue Mission

We need volunteers to help out at the Rescue Mission on the third Thursday of each month, from 4:15pm-6:00pm. 
If you can help, please contact Josh Owen at 434-315-4078 or [email protected].

The nursery can't open, just yet! This is a great opportunity to be involved in our youngest ones' lives and help their faith grow and flourish by creating a welcoming environment for them.
We have an amazing increase in children needing the nursery. I ask for your help in solving this problem and also in other areas of our ministry.
Our church nursery can't open this Sunday because we need volunteers! Sign up for any Sunday for either worship service and/or Sunday school time. No monthly commitment, just serve when you can. There is a TV setup to be able to watch worship services. The nursery has been redone to best suit our children and ready to be played in.
Additional help is needed too for paid positions for Childcare Workers on Sunday and Wednesday evenings, $13/hr rate.
Sunday school is also in need of teachers!
Please click the link below to sign up for the nursery and contact me for information about our paid positions or about Sunday school. Thank you!
