Go ahead and mark you calendar for Winter Retreat, which will be December 28-30. We are working on hotel arrangements, and will let you know the cost soon so that you can start saving up money.

Thank you to everyone who signed up to compete in Bible Competitions. Whether you are teaching/preaching or playing sword drill, you are important to helping GHBC come in first place this year!!

Happy Monday! We hope everyone enjoyed their first day back at school! How was it? Let us know in the comments section!


This Wednesday we will have Movin' On Up in the downstairs classrooms at 7:00. We had a HUGE crowd last week! Let's try and do that again! We will be discussing the GYF Winter Retreat so go ahead and think about what you would like to participate in -- for example, singing, preaching (guys), teaching (girls), forming a basketball team, etc. The more volunteers we have the better!



Don't forget about Saturday's "Nail Gun Fiasco"! We will be meeting at the church at 2:00 PM for an afternoon of fun, festivities, and food!
  • Girls -- We will be going swimming at the Fauscett's house and doing our own nails. Bring your bathing suit, towels, sunscreen, and fingernail polish!
  • Guys - We will be going to play AirSoft at Jabez's house. Bring your AirSoft guns! (If you don't have one, don't worry, just let us know and we will find one for you to borrow.)
Everyone needs to bring money for CiCis Pizza, which is about $7 (all-you-can-eat food and drink).

We will meet back at the church around 7:00 PM.


Have a great week at school! See you Wednesday!

Welcome to Jr. High!

To all of our new class members, WELCOME to the Teen Department! We are glad you moved up and are excited about spending the next three years with you!

We will have Movin' On Up on Wednesday night in the down stairs classrooms (Bro Jimmy's class and the copier room). Be there at 7:00 PM for a quick quiz practice, crazy conversation time, and preaching. *Remember to practice I and II Thessalonians and win the competition against Bro. Michael!*


Mark your calendar for our next event on Saturday, August 15th from 2:00-7:00. Guys will be playing AirSoft at Jabez's house while the girls go swimming and have "do-it-yourself" pedicures at the Fauscetts house. Then, we will all meet up for a quick dinner before we go home. Guys, bring your AirSoft equipment and money for dinner. Girls, bring towels, bathing suits, fingernail polish, and money for dinner.

Enjoy your last week of freedom before school starts!! See you Wednesday!
