GGC Finance

 
Discipleship leads to Mission. This is the heartbeat of our Church.

At GGC we encourage our people “to give generously…and to steward well”

We believe that your donations carry a heavy responsibility by our Church to be managed well in order to make our vision a reality.

Your generous donations are allocated to what we call “Holistic Discipleship”. Holistic Discipleship contains 3 areas: Spiritual Formation, Community and Restoration.

In Spiritual Formation we focus resources on Bibles; on books; on apologetics; educational DVDs; social media; sending individuals and groups to conferences; leadership development; enhancing worship services; workshops; teachers and guest speakers with the sole focus of making disciples who are confident when they are sent out to their workplaces, schools, neighborhoods, rec leagues and with friends, family and strangers.

In Community we center resources on financing events that help connect people and help build relationships. We want to create a yearly retreat where we focus on relationships with each other and with God. We envision building a coffeehouse that helps connect the Church to the community.

In Restoration, we believe in giving money away!  We don’t want to be a church that just spends resources on itself. We want to financially support organizations, churches and ministries that are already fighting injustice in the city and around the world. We envision in the future financing projects that build orphanages and build wells where clean water does not exist.

This “Holistic Discipleship” leads to Mission. It will lead to stories of people meeting Jesus; stories of people being helped; stories of people finding friendships. Because of this we ask you to join us for we believe your investment will be meaningful and worthwhile as it helps build the Kingdom of God.
