!Get The Whole Family Connected! It’s easy to get the entire family connected and growing with God here at GSCC! While fun and life-changing Children’s

and Youth Ministry (Newborn through 12th Grade) takes place here at GSCC, numerous Connect Groups meet throughout our city. Instead of one large Wednesday night Connect Group here at the church, we encourage you to drop off your children at GSCC and find a Connect Group that’s a fit for YOU to deepen relationships and receive encouragement! Doors

open at 6:15 pm for Children’s Ministry drop off, and pick time is promptly at 8:00 pm. Let’s go ALL IN & Connect this Fall at GSCC! For more information about Connect

Groups, check out GSCCConnect.com and click “Get Connected”.

Welcome from the Senior Pastor Welcome to GSCC. I want to personally thank you for taking the time to be with us this morning. As we sing songs together, greet one another and receive instruction from the Bible this morning, my hope is that you will be encouraged and strengthened by God.

May the time you invested this morning here at GSCC be richly rewarded with God’s peace, love and direction for your life. !! !“For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord.

“They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Jeremiah 29:11

About Us Good Shepherd Community Church is a Spirit-empowered, non-denominational body of believers. We believe that God never intended for people to go through life alone. God wants us in relationships where we can build each other up and encourage one another. By Connecting to each other, we are better equipped to Connect to God and Connect with those separated from God. We truly believe that “Together We Can.”
