Our first step at GBC is our Welcome Aboard Class, which runs the first Sunday of every month. This class covers our beliefs. It provides an opportunity to meet our pastors and staff, in addition to connecting with other people new to GBC and new to the area. Finally, the class provides really clear next steps for those looking to get more involved through either serving or joining a group.

GBC is a non-denominational church committed to reflecting Jesus Christ to a needy world. We began in 1919 with strong Brethren roots. Some “glimpses” into our heritage can be noticed in our shared preaching model as well as our strong dedication to learning and studying God’s Word. GBC began as a teaching environment for children, and for its first 5 decades the kids outnumbered the adults! This value continues today as we believe strongly in the importance of investing in the next generation. To learn more, visit the page about our story.

In addition to announcements on social media, we publish a physical bulletin every Sunday morning that is also available on our website. One of the best ways to stay updated is to subscribe to our Monday morning email which goes out every week. You can subscribe HERE.

Our groups mainly operate on a semester system that generally runs from September-December and January-May. We promote our groups every August for new sign-ups and people are welcome to continue exploring and joining groups for the rest of the year. You can usually begin looking through groups on our website around the middle of August. We generally have somewhere around 80-90 groups running in any given semester between Bible Studies, Care Groups, Small Groups, and Marriage Enrichment.

AWANA meets on Wednesday nights and serves our PreK-5th grade. ENGAGE meets Tuesdays from 6-8pm and serves our 6th-8th graders. BREAKAWAY also meets on Tuesday nights from 6-8pm and serves our high school students. You can find more details on our children and youth webpages.
