Get Connected
Being connected we become friends! Here at GBC, we believe becoming part of a small group allows us to grow in our relationships. We encourage each other, help carry one anothers burdens, and become more Christ-like as we study and learn the Word of God.
AWANA
(Approved Workmen Are Not Ashamed 2 Tim. 2:15 KJV) is a non-denominational ministry that assists local churches in reaching children with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and training them to serve Him. AWANAs message is simple, yet eternal having fun with a purpose, to win and grow kids for Christ. AWANA meets each Wednesday night at 6PM during the school year for children in grades K-8.
Groton Bible Chapel is a non-denominational church that seeks to reflect the Lord Jesus to a needy world. Our children’s programs parallel that mission statement in that we strive to train our children to know and love Jesus, to love their neighbors and to tell others about the love of Jesus.
Growing Together
Growing Together is a program for ladies of the church to get together for special events to grow in the Lord and in relationship with one another. Events vary from a large group - such as a conference, a tea and drama, a soup and salad evening, or a Christmas program - to smaller luncheons in someones home. Most events take place on a weekday evening, and child care is not provided.
Happy Followers
The Happy Followers provide fellowship, support, inspiration, information and encouragement to the seniors at GBC. We meet on the 3rd Thursday of each month for devotions, activities, food and occasional travel. All seniors and retirees age 55 and over are welcome and encouraged to join us.
Men in Ministry
GBC’s Men in Ministry seeks to equip and mobilize every man to reflect Christ in his home, church and community. Our purpose is also to reach men in our community with a credible offer of the gospel and equip them as spiritual leaders. Over the last few years, we have hosted Christian Growth Classes, men’s retreats & conferences and, recently, a white water rafting trip.
MOMS is a ministry for mothers of pre-schoolers through teens. Our mission is to encourage and strengthen mothers to love and serve their families with Jesus Christ as their foundation (Titus 2:3-5). Programs are held the first Friday of each month, October-May, 9:30-11:00 a.m. Childcare is provided for children up through kindergarten; supervision is provided for elementary-aged, home schooled children as well.
The Roaring 20s is a Christ-driven fellowship open to all high school graduates through age 29. We meet Thursday nights at 7 p.m. For details please click here.
Small Groups
A Small Group is more than a Bible study. Small Groups meet for accountability and support. Group members talk to each other, lean on each other, encourage each other, pray for each other, hold each other accountable, and worship together. These Groups become small families in Christ. We believe that healthy spiritual lives are grown by building a healthy small group community, and that it is Christ's love that makes it all possible. Small Groups typically meet every other week in homes throughout the area.
