Elementary 

Our elementary-aged children have the opportunity to play, learn, and grow together in a wide variety of ways.  GPC kids participate in mission activities, learn about the Bible in fun ways and even explore their creative gifts.  There are many opportunities for them to share those gifts with the congregation!
