SINGLE PURPOSE
This is a ministry for single women of all ages. Our
December meeting will be lunch at the Waterford Place Cafe.
Some of you are busy during the month of December, and others of us,
not so much. For those of us who are able, we will get
together for lunch just to keep in touch.
The address
at the Waterford Place is 1725 Port Sheldon, but the drive into the
parking area is off of 18th Ave. It's on the south side of
Chicago Dr, and the north side of Port Sheldon, with 18th Avenue
running alongside on the west. If you are unfamiliar with
where it is, do a trial run sometime soon. Just enter the main
entrance, and the cafe is in the large open area right off the
entrance. We'll go "Dutch Treat" and will order off the
menu. Just maybe, we'll do a small tour after lunch.
Please get the date on your calendar and plan on meeting at 12
noon. Enjoy the holiday season and keep your focus on Jesus!
For any questions, please call Wanda Mudget at 401-1456.
jump-in: jr high youth meeting
JUMP-IN is on the second Saturday of every month. The goal of
JUMP-IN is to be intimate with God, to bring a practical biblical
perspective to everyday life, and to prepare the young saints for
service.
Meetings are at GCF from 7-9 PM. Please mark your calendar to come
and join us for this great opportunity in learning how to serve God
and others through your actions of giving!
HOME GROUPS
If you would like to receive encouragement
during the week or to feel closer knit through the body of believers
at GCF, we encourage you to go to a home group meeting. It is
an excellent way to get to know others and let God minister to you!
GCF's Home Groups meet in two different locations:
1)
The home of Calvin & Barb Bergsma, 1134
Baldwin in Jenison on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month. Fellowship begins at 7:00 PM and the meeting promptly starts at 7:30
and ends at 9:00. Please join us or call the Bergsma's at
457-2960 for more information.
2) The home of Rusty & Pam Richter, 5665 Ivanrest Ave in Grandville
on the 2nd & 4th Thursdays of the month at 7PM. This is a body
ministry and will involve teaching, sharing, prayer, and fellowship.
Please call them at 531-9563 or email
pamelarich@comcast.net
for any questions. They would love to have you join them!
Y-JAM EVERY TUESDAY 7-9PM
All youth, ages 10 and up, interested in learning more about worship
music are invited to join us for weekly Y-Jam sessions.
We meet every Tuesday evening at the church from 7-9 PM; if you fit
that age category, please join us!
ATTENTION PARENTS AND CHILDREN
For the safety of our children and adults, please do not bring
or use skate boards, roller blades, balls or toys anywhere in the
parking lot, sidewalks, or by the front door. However, they
may be used in the backyard of the church. Parents, we
appreciate your help in enforcing this new policy for the safety of
all.
AUDIO CD/VIDEO
RECORDINGS
CD/DVD’s
of all services, past and present, are available free of
charge. To request a CD, please see Steve Assink immediately
after the service or call him at 616-681-0123. Sermons
in Audio & Video format are also posted on the church website at
www.gcfchurch.net usually
within two days of each Sunday sermon given, so they can be
heard that way too if you couldn’t be there on a given Sunday.
GCF PRAYER CHAIN MINISTRY
GCF has a Prayer Chain Ministry in which all those attending this
fellowship may take advantage of. If you would like to be
added to that list to pray for others, you can send your name, phone
number, and email address (if you have one) to Kathleen at
prayer@gcfchurch.net or
call 457-6557. Prayerfully consider being added to this
prayer chain list to see God move through the prayers of His saints!
Philippians 4:6, "Be
anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication,
with thanksgiving, let your requests be make known to God; and the
peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your
hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."
