Ministry Teams
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Colossians 3:16
Ministry teams carry much of the life and work of GPC. Each team is led by one or more elders and includes members who feel called to serve in the life of the church. These teams offer meaningful ways to connect, serve, and grow together. Whether you are new or have been part of GPC for years, we invite you to join us and be part of the work God is doing here. Call or email the church office for more information about how to become involved!
