Ways to Serve
GNCC could not function without our wonderful volunteers and their amazing gifts. We have many different ministries that are always looking for help. There are different ways you can volunteer on Sunday mornings and during the week. Volunteering is not only a great way to serve the Lord, but also a great way to connect with fellow believers. Below are a few areas that you can serve in. If you are interested in any of the areas below, please fill out our ways to serve form.
