The Teaching ministry

What a wonderful year we have had in Sunday School.

I am so proud of all the children and their accomplishments and growth. Some have grown personally with their relationships with Christ, some with their relationships with others and many have grown by looking at old stories in new ways.

The Nurture committee and the children’s steering committee thank all the wonderful teachers who have helped our children grow. GPC teachers are an incredible team of devoted people reaching out to the children to share what they know and then growing themselves along the way!

We are grateful to have with us 47 teachers and coordinators for children’s Sunday School. Can you believe the numbers on this team! They are incredible people, so willing to play an active role in nurturing the GPC kids.

I also want to thank my husband, for being so incredibly supportive and for being Mr. Ralph, the Sunday School worship coordinator the kids adore…
