We would love our community to join us in prayer as we see what great things God will do when we come together as a community! Our Principal, Mr. Vander Zanden, challenged our staff on the last day to pray for B.E.T this summer! B - building - we are asking for God’s hand and provision in a new building plan to help us grow and meet the needs of GCS. E - enrollment - Our prayer is 100 students by fall! T - teacher - We are asking God to send us the right teacher to join our staff and be able to pour into our 2nd graders next school year.
Will you join us in this daily prayer?
THIS Saturday, June 1st, is our first summer work day for GCS! Come on out starting at 8:30am to help fix up some things around the school!

Our Kindergartners graduated this afternoon!
"Thank you Kinder parents for allowing me to be your child's teacher! It has truly been my joy! I am so proud of each and every one of the Kinders! They have grown academically, in maturity, in friendship, and most importantly in their faith! They ask good questions and strive to be more like Christ! They truly strive to love their friends like Jesus loves us! I am one proud teacher! Congratulations Kindergartners! God has great plans for you!" 💙Mrs. Knol
