READY TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP IN YOUR FAITH?
Scripture teaches that those who put their trust in Christ for salvation should be baptized as a public declaration of their faith. Baptism symbolizes our union with Jesus—His death, burial, and resurrection (Romans 6:1–14, Matthew 28:18–20). It’s a physical act that represents a spiritual reality: we are no longer dead in our sin, but alive in Christ. Our next baptism will take place during both services on Sunday, August 24 at 8am and 10am. To sign up or learn more visit here.

GBCC is for families
We love seeing families of all ages and sizes come through our doors at GBCC. In order to make all families comfortable on Sunday mornings, we want to invite you to explore all areas designed with you in mind! The Nursing Mother's Room is located off the Women's bathroom and can be accessed through the back doors of the gym. The Wiggle Room is perfect for those with small children who like to move! Books, toys, comfortable seating, and the service streamed can be found tucked behind the playground area. The Family Section inside the service has tables, chairs, and Quiet Bags to borrow near the southeast section in the gym. And, of course, we have classrooms for children birth - 5th grade where kids play, sing, dance, and hear Bible teaching with our amazing adult volunteers. We look forward to seeing you on Sundays, and deepening our faith in Jesus together.

GENEROSITY REPORT
〰️
GENEROSITY REPORT 〰️
Giving is an expression of our gratitude and love for God and others. When we share what we have, we participate in building His kingdom and blessing those around us. As Acts 20:35 says, "It is more blessed to give than to receive." At GBCC we strive to live with open hands, reflecting God's heart of generosity in all we do.
As we work together to fulfill our mission in Green Bay, we want to keep you regularly informed about our financial journey. Each week we will inform you of where we stand. Currently, we are on average approximately $1,600 short of our weekly budget goal. Each week we will inform you of where we stand. For the week of July 24th • Total giving was $21,344—about $17,000 below our target.
As Winston Churchill once said, "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give." When we give, we help build a community rooted in love, kindness, and selflessness, reflecting the very nature of Christ. Thank you for your commitment and passion for reflecting the nature of Christ in our church!
