Sunday Worship
Greenville Community Church meets in the Sanctuary every Sunday at 10:00am through the year. Worship lasts approximately one hour, providing an opportunity to sing, pray, and commune with God and each other. Our talented musicians lead soul-lifting music ranging from classical and jazz to traditional and contemporary hymns. Communion is celebrated the first Sunday of every month.
Sunday school is available most Sundays (excluding communion Sundays); children start in worship and are invited to depart for their classrooms following a children’s sermon. For information, contact Pastor Sam.
Prayer is an important part of this faith community. If you or someone you know is in need of prayer, please contact Pastor Sam. Names can be added to the public prayer list or be held in confidence.

Support Feeding Westchester—through Sep. 30. September is Hunger Action Month, and each year Feeding Westchester, the largest food support charity in the county (and one of our mission partners), raises funds to feed neighbors in need. All donations made this month will be doubled thanks to a matching gift by a Feeding Westchester supporter. To make a gift, use the pew envelopes and mark clearly the donation is for Feeding Westchester.

Clothing Donation Shed. GCC has partnered with St. Pauly Textile to collect used clothing, shoes, sneakers, belts, purses, blankets, towels, sheets, pillowcases, curtains and stuffed animals for distribution to communities in need. Please place items in good condition in bags, and drop them in the shed in the back parking lot, which will be emptied regularly by St. Pauly. All donations are tax deductible. If you would like to volunteer to organize the bags inside and sweep the shed once or twice per week, please contact Pastor Sam.
We are accepting donations for the food pantry. If you have spare canned goods or boxes of cereal, consider donating them to our partner, the Ecumenical Emergency Food Pantry of White Plains. A basket is located in the Narthex; food will be transported from GCC regularly.
