Wilds of NE missions trip

What a gorgeous day to serve The Lord outdoors! God gave us the opportunity to partner with the Wilds of New England in Deering, NH on Saturday, April 27.
The entire church was able to give half of the funds necessary to complete a new cabin. Marcus and Tony were able to add a deck to the front of the new cabin. Phil, Cuppy, Bob, Marilyn, Steve, Hudson, and Will worked tirelessly all day cutting and splitting many cords of firewood. Recreating the "Green Monstah" for the new whiffle-ball field was tackled by Craig and Pastor Jon. We are thankful for all those who gave of their time and finances to make this trip glorifying to God and furthering His work in New England!

Progressive Dinner Adult Fellowship

On March 9th the GBC family enjoyed a time of fun, food and fellowship (these 3 always seem to go together :)  We met at the church and were given clues to figure out the various locations where we would find our appetizer, main course and dessert. Upon arrival at each location, we were greeted with a table full of food. The appetizers were enough for a full meal! The main course was a delicious spread that included grilled chicken and steak - the smells of summer! As we finished our meal, we were then spiritually fed through a time in God's Word. Our last clue led us back to our original destination - GBC. Our dessert of strawberry shortcake, was served as we played a round of Tic Tac Toe - an old game with a new twist that included some interesting challenges between the two teams.
