New Member Gathering

Sunday, October 18, 11:00, Parlor in Fellowship Hall

The New Member Gathering is open to everyone interested in learning more about GCC, getting involved, or wondering what it means to be a member. At this information session you will meet other new people at GCC and learn all about this vibrant, committed, progressive faith community. There will be a time to share our own stories of how we got here as well as space to ask questions. 

Following the gathering, people who are ready to commit will be invited to participate in an upcoming Member Joining Service. Even if you are not ready to formally join, this gathering is a great place to dip your toes in, make connections, and continue on your journey in our community. No need to RSVP.
