What to Expect at GBBC

What should I expect during the service?

The Sunday morning worship service consists of hymn singing, special music, announcements and a sermon. Someone from the platform will ask the congregation to stand at certain times, such as for the hymns. The sermon is the highlight of the service - it lasts about 40 minutes. It may be an explanation/application of a Bible passage or a topical study on what the Bible says about something. It is always intended to explain what God's Word says.

What should I wear?

There is no particular dress code. You will see many men wearing a coat and tie and many women in dresses - this is because we view the gathering of saints to worship God as a special occasion, and we dress accordingly. But you will see people in a spectrum of formality. Our focus is on your heart, not on what you wear.

What should I bring?

You do not need to bring anything. If you have a Bible, it will help you follow along with the pastor's sermon.

What about my children?

Nursery care is provided for children through age 1-3. They can be checked into the nursery before (or during) the service.  On Sunday morning at 9:30 AM we have Sunday School classes for ages 4-18. In  the morning service we have Children's Church for ages 4-16. On Wednesdays we have many opportunities for young people to learn on their level. On Wednesday night we have the Sowers Kids Club ages 4-12 and a young persons Bible study ages 13-18.  If preferred, non-disruptive children may remain in the auditorium. Intellectually, the sermon is geared for adults; the content is, of course, appropriate for everyone.
