Where the growing never ends.
At GFCC, we are committed to helping you GROW! Our main program for discipleship is called GFCU (formerly called Discipleship Training)! Courses are offered in the Spring and the Fall that require some commitment, last several weeks, usually have studies you do on your own at home, and give you the chance to go deeper with God.
New courses will be announced soon. Will you make a commitment to grow by taking one of the courses offered during the Fall of 2004? Here is a list of the types of courses that have been offered before!
