Sunday School
On Sunday morning we want every child K-5th Grade to experience three things: Worship, Sunday School, and XLR8. We believe that all three of these elements of worship offer a unique experience to every child. Parents are encouraged to bring their kids with them to whatever worship hour they attend, and send their kids to the Children's Hall during adult Sunday School.
During adult Sunday School kids at GBC will experience XLR8 and Children's Sunday School in the Children's Hall.

Sunday Mornings: XLR8
XLR8 is a high energy children's worship experience for kindergarten through 5th grade that meets in the Loft every Sunday morning from 8:00-8:45 and 9:30-10:15. Children have a great time worshipping and learning about God through His Word at their level!
Fall Semester
The Gospel Project is devoted to building a Biblical Foundation for kids kindergarten-5th Grade. Our aim is that we would teach the Bible in such a way that it would captivate the hearts and minds of our children. Each week our kids will memorize age appropriate memory verses, become acquainted
with handling the Bible, study relevant Bible stories, and learn the books of the Bible. Join us each week on Wednesday nights from 6:15-7:30 p.m. where the focus is always on the WORD.
Spring Semester
On Wednesday nights at 6:15, kids participate in Team Kid.
TeamKID is a fun, high-energy ministry that encourages kids to know Jesus Christ and to grow in a relationship with Him. That’s why TeamKID ends with KID. KID stands for Kids in Discipleship! All parts of TeamKID — Bible stories, Scripture memory, mission activities, life application, and recreation games — connect to teach life lessons to kids.

Royal Ambassadors (RA's) and Girls in Action (GA's) are missions discipleship organizations for boys and girls K-5th Grade.
