Children’s Ministry
Children are a blessing from the Lord and as such their Sunday morning starts in the church service with their parents. Singing praise and worship songs along with their parents and peers, children quickly learn by example, to lift their voices in song to bring Glory to God. After a time in the service, children from pre-school to grade 5 are dismissed to their age appropriate classrooms where they further learn Bible based lessons at their level. Teachings, including games, songs, stories and hands on activities, all work together to truly solidify the scriptures in their minds and on their hearts.
Junior Youth
Junior youth is for kids in grades 5, 6 and 7. Meeting on Wednesday nights at 6:30 pm, at the church, Pastor Jerad and his amazing team of volunteers, lead the kids in activities, games and lessons designed to engage them in active conversation and critical thinking. The ultimate goal is to lead them to Christ and deepen their relationship with Him.
Senior Youth
Senior youth is for those in grades 8 to 12. Meeting on Tuesday nights at 7;00 pm, at the church, Pastor Jerad and a great team of volunteers, lead the youth in understanding who they are in the sight of God and discuss some of the ‘sticky’ subjects of life. Students are challenged to think, act and do what God has called them to do.
College & Career
The M&M’s (Millenials & the Messiah) is a young adult group of our church that provides a welcoming atmosphere for college and early-career aged young people. The M&M’s of our society are at a time of life where there are complicated decisions. Bigger stakes. Serious relationships. And a whole lot more decisions to be made. Meeting every second week, in their group leaders home, they engage in deep, meaningful study of the Lord’s word and discuss how it applies to them and their particular stage of life.
Women’s Ministry Group
Women’s groups give the ladies in our church family special times of interaction. Our women’s groups, located in several locations throughout our community, are times of Bible study, prayer and times of great fellowship. Along with these studies, the women’s group also offers opportunity to invite family and friends to attend a Spring Brunch or Christmas Salad Support together. Both of these event include some amazing decorations, a great atmosphere, wonderful food and an amazing guest speaker who is sure to challenge each and every lady there. These groups provide a refreshing discipleship opportunity for the women in the church.
Men’s Ministry Group
Accountability among men is an act of integrity. Accountability is designed to protect, encourage, and develop men of all ages. But before we can be accountable to one another, we need to know one another. The men of Grace Bible Church meet once a month, on the third Thursday of the month, at Tom’s restaurant in Vernon, for breakfast. Annually, the men may take part in a weekend fishing trip, golf tournament and other spiritual based activities in our church and community.
AAA (Active & Able Adults)
The Active & Able Adults is primarily made up of those in the 40’s, 50’s and early 60’s. This is a group of adults that takes part in activities that are at least partially, physically active. Marrieds and singles alike connect for social interaction and encouragement as we enjoy hiking, biking, snowshoeing, camping, pool parties, BBQ’s and more. Come and take part in a safe, friendly atmosphere!
Young @ Heart Seniors Ministry
The Young @ Heart Seniors ministry is available so that people nearing or already retired are able to continue to interact socially. Once you get past sixty, the fun has just begun! Whether retired, just plain tired, or active as ever, the over-60 group of Grace Bible Church provides refreshment, ministry, and times of valuable interaction. Meeting for lunch, music, entertainment and more, on the last Thursday of the month, seniors gather at the church to enjoy a great afternoon together.
Worship Arts Ministry
The praise and worship style of Grace Bible Church consists of both modern upbeat songs as well as, hymns that touch our hearts and stir memories from our childhood. Singing praised to our Lord Jesus Christ can come in many ways, shapes and forms…the important thing is that we worship Him and Him alone!
