Welcome to our messages page, where you can hear relevant, encouraging and thought provoking teaching from the truths of the Bible.

Our Current Sermon Series

While history has traditionally seen Acts simply as stories about the Apostles – we now see the book is so much more. It is certainly an account of the eleven disciples after Jesus is raised from the dead, but even more so, it is an account of the early Christians: an account of the Holy spirit, an account of the early church, and most significantly, the account of the continued work of Jesus Christ and God Himself, bringing His living witness to the ends of the Earth through His people. So, come join us this year as we  explore how the Gospel of Christ first changed the world, and as we ourselves learn what it means to let that same gospel change our lives and our world, even today.

Join us as we spend the next year learning what God has to show us in the book of Acts, starting September 14th.

Live-streamed online at 9:00 am on Sundays

Acts: The Living Witness of Jesus

After the healing of the blind man, Peter and John find themselves on trial before the chief priest as they ask them about their authority to do the things that they've done. Peter's and John's response is to share the Gospel with them.

Scripture References: Acts 4:5-22, Mark 14:53-65, Psalms 118:1-29

Due to an unexpected illness, Pastor Ron was unable to give the message. Instead we heard from two of our Elders. Dan Carlson gave an update on the Pastoral Search Team Process and Quintin Legler spoke to GREFC's vision and strategy.

Our Vision

Faith is a Journey

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!
