Getting Involved

"Devote yourselves to one another."

Getting involved at Grace Bible Church means devoting yourself to building relationships within our fellowship and committing your gifts to Christ's service here.  It's following Christ's model of  loving and giving to one another for His glory alone.

Connect

• An easy way to begin to get to know us better is to attend our popular Get Acquainted with Grace class.  This informative class offered during our Christian Education hour explains how and why we do things here at Grace.  You'll have a chance to ask questions and meet some great people.
• Of course, we want to get to know you as well, so please watch for an upcoming  quarterly Newcomer's Luncheon.  Meet the pastors, elders and staff while we enjoy fellowship and great food!
• If you haven't done so already, Sign up for the GBC Blast which is our e-newsletter. You'll be among the first to hear new announcements and you'll always know what's going on with reminders of upcoming activities.

Commit

• Join a small group. This is the best way to start building friendships and to be encouraged by our people.  Look at our group descriptions and our group calendar to select a group.  We'll be happy to include you!
• Come to GBC events.  This are great opportunities for meeting new people and building on the relationships you start on Sunday mornings.
• Come to SNAG (Sunday Nights @ Grace).  These services are more intimate and many folks usually stay around afterward to visit.

Contribute

I Peter 4:10 says "As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God." A steward is one who cares for something that is not his own.  He or she has been entrusted with it by its actual owner and is expected and instructed on its care.  We are entrusted as stewards of the very grace of God to use it in ministry to one another!  What a privilege!  At Grace we have service opportunities for folks from the newest attender to our most mature members.  Look over our ministries and ask God where He wants to use you.

Membership

A commitment to actively serve in and identify with a local church is an exciting and essential aspect of every Christian’s life.  It is beautiful to see God’s people serving one another in a selfless, Christ-like manner. Membership is one of the best expressions of that commitment. To get started, pick up a Membership Packet from the information table.  After prayerfully reviewing the enclosed materials, submit your completed membership application to the church office.  A pastor-elder will contact you to set up an appointment.  This will be a time for you to ask questions and share your faith.  A pastor-elder will contact you once you have been received into membership.  We welcome your inquiries and the opportunity to assist you.
