Schedule Changes

Windup_alarm_clockJune has come, and so has WGBC’s modified schedule.

In order to create a structured time for folks to get together for meetings, prayer, fellowship, study groups, etc…, and to help deal with the obstacles of ever busying schedules, we’re trying to use the time before Sunday School for those gatherings.

The church will be open and available for those meetings at 8:20 a.m., Sunday School will now begin at 9:45 a.m., and Service will begin at 11 a.m.

This first week, June 5, Deacons will meet at 8:20 a.m. and Church Council will meet at 9:50 a.m.
