Join the young adults every Tuesday night in the Worship Center for a rousing game of not-too-competitive volleyball. Adults who don't fit the "young" category are always welcome! In the spring we move outside and play ultimate frisbee at the fairgrounds.
We invite the entire church to join us on Wednesday evenings for a great meal and connection time (it isn't just for those families participating in Wednesday evening programming). Each week we serve a delicious meal suitable for the whole family. All meals will have a dairy- and gluten-free option, and we strive for all […]
Groups are a focus of our church and so it makes sense that our kids would be in them, too! Groups of 4-8 boys or girls meet each week with their leader (preschoolers are all together in one big group). Leaders and kids spend 45 minutes talking about life and God, learning from various curriculum, […]

Students follow this program for two years, one year focusing on the Old Testament and one year focusing on the New Testament. In 2023 BRICK will focus on […]
Join with us to pray for and support the team that will be going to the Dominican Republic in April. We hope to raise funds to build three homes.

You never really “arrive” at becoming a mature disciple maker. We are all called to continually grow deeper in our relationship with Jesus, to grow in love for others, to get better at blessing those around us and to increasingly share the love of Jesus with everyone. At GREFC we realize this through four key areas: Connect, Equip, Serve & Go!
