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. To register your child, contact Faith Formation Coordinator Kristen O’Leary.
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.

upcoming events
Summer Sermon “Suggestion Box.” Have you ever wished you heard a sermon on a particular scripture or theme? This July and August, *you* have the opportunity to propose topics and passages for Pastor Sam to explore from the pulpit. Simply write your suggestion on a slip of paper and put it in the suggestion box in the Narthex, or email Pastor Sam, sclover@greenvillechurch.org. A suggestion is not a guarantee that the topic will be covered, but every suggestion will be considered.
RCA “Women of the Bible” Online Summer Study Series. Starting Thu., Jul. 10, 7:00-8:30pm EST. All are welcome to join this weekly online Bible study sponsored by the Women’s Transformation and Leadership ministry of the Reformed Church in America. Each week, participants will go deep in biblical texts to learn about women in the Old and New Testaments. The studies are led by authors of chapters in the book, “She Is Called Women of the Bible: Study Series—Volume 4.” Through September 4. For info, email women@rca.org or visit https://www.faithward.org/women-of-the-bible-study-series.
Help Sort Materials from Our Clothing Donation Shed. We are assembling a team of volunteers to help organize donations of clothing, shoes, sheets and more. This will greatly help us transfer the materials to people in need. Our goal is to meet every other week, or as necessary; attend as often as you can. For more info, email sclover@greenvillechurch.org.

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.
