Elder: Tom Cox

5th + 6th
Surge is our crossover ministry from Children to Youth. Here 5th and 6th graders will begin deeper and focused dives into the theological truths behind the stories of the Bible and prepare them for the cultural/worldly issues they are beginning to and will face as teens. In these short formative years Surge focuses on theology, doctrine, Scripture memorization, and apologetics. Surge meets
Sunday mornings during Sunday School 9am and Wednesday nights @ 6:30-8pm.
Middle + High School
It is the mission of GHBC to show your teenagers where they can find absolute truth. This comes from Scripture. We gear the Youth ministry to move them from the Bible events they learn as children and from the intro to theology in Surge to understanding why they believe these truths for themselves. We engage them to think and ponder upon God and His Word in hopes that their faith is their own and not a false hope. By this we are walking alongside them as they work out their salvation and become productive members of the body.
Y2F- Youth Family Fun
We hold an evening of fun and fellowship in the Spring and Fall. These are designed to bring families back together, where youth and parents eat, fellowship, study God's Word and play games together. These events are open to all family members of youth and youth leadership.
Youth Camps
We will be heading back to the Williamsburg Christian Retreat Center June 1st-5th. Our theme this year will be "Unity in Christ", our focus will be building the bonds that unify us together as Christians, building relationships that last and edify the body and glorify God. If you have interest in your student going, please reach out to Pastor Zach Turner as soon as possible for details.
