Get Connected is back!

Get the New Year started by joining us one of the year’s best retreats.  Connect with your faith and with friends.  It all happens right here on the GFUMC campus and in host homes.  Great teaching, great Worship, really good food and some great times in small community groups.  All meals, housing and transportation are included.

Gerald Fadayomi will be our speaker this year.  You heard him at Bigstuf this past summer.  We’re also excited to have a great band leading us in Worship.

Bring your friends and join us for a great weekend.  You don’t want to miss this!

*** We are in need of two additional host homes for the weekend. Parents, your responsibility would be to open your home and provide some transportation to and from church. Small group leaders will handle sessions, crowd control and some transportation! If you would be able to provide a host home, please contact ric clark

***Parents, if you would help us with the following items, it would be great! Even if your student can’t participate in Get Connected this year, here is a way for you to invest in Student Ministry

Listed below are specific items needed for the weekend.

  • Cases of 8oz water bottles

  • 3 bags of mini bagels and cream cheese
