Right Now at GCR
Join us at First Methodist on Thursday, April 2, as we gather for a Maundy Thursday Tenebrae Service with our brothers and sisters from First Methodist, First Presbyterian, and First Baptist, for a powerful evening of reflection and worship. This unique and meaningful service combines the observance of Maundy Thursday, where we remember Jesus’ last supper with His disciples, with the Service of Tenebrae, a moving progression of scripture readings, extinguishing of candles, and moments of silence that walk us through the final hours of Jesus’ life.
All are welcome. Come and be a part of this sacred journey.
At GCR, we are working through a study of scripture, led by our elders, to affirm and expand the roles that women serve in our worship services. We believe this move honors our God and helps us better proclaim Jesus as Lord to the people of our city and to those around the world. We are excited to experience all that God will do in us and through us as we are blessed by all the gifts he has given to the GCR Church.

The Creation Order
With sin come consequences. Speeding gets you a ticket and an increased insurance rate. Stealing lands you in jail with a permanent record. Adultery adversely impacts several layers of relationships. Sin destroys what once was good and replaces it with something much less. The real trouble comes when too much sin and too much time result in a person believing the “something less” is the way it was always meant to be.
