If you have recently started attending GCC, we hope you'll join us after service on Sunday, February 2, to enjoy a meal with us!

It has been wonderful to see our worship team grow this year! One way we would like to see the worship team continue to grow this next year is by giving people more opportunities to use their musical skills to serve the church. Whether that be by playing on Sunday mornings or by leading worship for the nursing home ministry, there are plenty of opportunities to grow musically and spiritually by serving in different ministries.
If you can play an instrument, love to sing, or want to learn how to play an instrument and are interested in joining the worship team to glorify God using your talents, we want to invite you to join us on February 1st for the GCC Worship Retreat! This half-day retreat will be spent learning more about what worship is and casting vision for the worship team moving forward in 2025. We’ll spend time playing as a full band and we’ll also have times to gather into smaller groups to work on improving our ability to play music together in a church setting. Lunch will be provided. We welcome people of all musical backgrounds to come and learn more about worship and playing their instruments for God’s glory!
If you are interested in joining us for this retreat, sign up below! If you are unable to attend the retreat but still have interest in joining the worship team, reach out to Sam.
