UPDATE!

ANOTHER UPDATE!!! GCC’S “ON MISSION”: July 11-14

Please register to participate using the QR code above! Plans are moving forward for this in-town mission trip.

The vision of this year's "mission trip" is to partner with Belmar Church to work within our community.

Our goal is to reach those within a few mile radius of our location who are Lost, Lonely, Local, and the Least.

During this 4-day in-town mission trip, we will be serving at Mean Street Ministries, Belmar’s Food Ministry, and providing a King’s Table, a 5-course fine dining meal to honor and love some of our underprivileged and unhoused neighbors, collaborating with local foster organizations, and a ministry service to elderly shut-ins in our community. We will also host a community churchwide celebration on Sunday morning. It is guaranteed to be an amazing time. All are welcome to join!

WE ARE PLANNING A SPECIAL REGISTRATION SUNDAY on June 9th where we will assist you in registering. Or register with the QR code or online at: linktr.ee/onmissionLW
