Questions

Come as you are. Seriously. You'll find members in everything from casual jeans to Sunday best — what matters is that you show up. There is no dress code at GBFPC.

Yes! K.I.C.K. (Kids In Christ's Kingdom) is available during Sunday morning services for children ages 4–12. Our team creates a safe, fun, and faith-filled environment for your kids so you can fully engage in worship.

Services typically run about 90 minutes, including worship and a message. We don't watch the clock — when God is moving, we make room for it.

If you're looking for a church that's real, Spirit-filled, and genuinely cares about people — you'll feel right at home. We're not perfect, but we are a family. The best way to know is to come and experience it yourself.

Not at all. Membership is something you grow into as you become part of the family. Whether it's your first Sunday or your fiftieth, there's a place for you to belong and get involved.

We livestream Sunday services on our website and YouTube channel. Visit gbfpc.org/livestream or check our YouTube to join online from anywhere.
