VISION

Our vision for GC Students: take Jesus into the world.

With everything we do at GC Students, we are asking this crucial question: “How are we helping these students take Jesus into their world (context) and everyday lives?”

FLOW

We keep this flow relatively consistent across all our programming because it works well and it facilitates easier transitions between different levels of ministry, for kids, students, and volunteers.
We follow an ACTIVE > LARGE GROUP > SMALL GROUPS flow (see below).

GC Students Rotation Model

Each week, we structure our Active time together around one of these themes:

SERVE

Engage in a project to help people in our community and church.

INVITE

Events that make it easy to invite friends to like Turkey Bowling or a campus-wide game of capture the flag.

PRAY

Set aside time to be guided through worship and prayer with special experiences and helpful new practices.

TEACH

Study at a deeper level and start your week with a more thorough understanding of the intersection of faith and life.
