As we reflect on 71 years of faithful service, we praise God for the many blessings and achievements we have experienced as a church. However, we recognize that our mission is far from over. In Matthew 28:19, we are reminded of our divine mandate: “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations…” This scripture calls us to continue our work with renewed vigor and commitment. We encourage you to use September’s prayer calendar to uplift GPBC in all service areas. Let us pray fervently for God's guidance and strength as we strive to fulfill His purpose of “changing lives through our worshiping, witnessing, and working.” Let us press forward together, knowing that our labor in the Lord is never in vain.
