By October 1, 2009June 17th, 2014No Comments

GARBC Sunday, Oct. 18!

GARBC LogoTogether We Can Accomplish More is the theme of our GARBC fellowship. It is good when church families not only care for their own needs, but also for the needs of other churches. Investing prayer and financial support in the Association yields great dividends for your church and for your sister churches in the GARBC.

Be part of something big by celebrating the GARBC in your church Oct. 18 (or any Sunday in October)! Promotion materials are on the way to each church in the GARBC, including a poster, bulletin insert, and DVD presentation, which will be great tools in helping you communicate the far-reaching ministry of the GARBC. Check our GARBC Sunday website for additional resources.

As part of the day, churches are asked to receive an offering to help with the financial needs of GARBC ministries. Support your association and help your people understand the GARBC motto, Together We Can Accomplish More! Your friends at the GARBC Resource Center would love to hear about your celebration. Please send us a photo and six sentences that tell about your church’s GARBC Sunday!

Think BIG, Think INDIA!

Encourage your youth or church group to accomplish great things for God’s glory. Pastor H. C. Stephen in Churachandpur, NE India, is asking for workers from GARBC churches to assist in hosting their VBS next July. This year’s attendance registered at 591, with 134 students professing faith in Christ. Next year they are planning a joint VBS for the schools and churches and are anticipating 1,000 students. This will be a great cross-cultural experience. For more information, contact Pastor Stephen at hcstephens@yahoo.com.
