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.

Save the Date: Volunteer to Pack and Fund Meals for Million Meal Project—Sat., Nov. 22, 2:30-4:30pm, Greenville Elementary School Gym, 100 Glendale Rd., Scarsdale. Help pack meals to be delivered to communities in need around the world. A former GCC Preschool family has partnered with Rise Against Hunger with the goal of serving one million meals.

Confirmation Class. We are now planning our confirmation program for the 2025-26 church year. Designed for students ages 12-14—though mature younger students and older teens may participate—the course will cover major stories of the Bible, the sacraments, the Lord’s Prayer, the Apostles Creed, and explore what it means to live out Christian faith. To register, interested students and their parents/guardians should contact Pastor Sam.
Household Supplies for Refugee Families. Members of our church have been working with Hearts and Homes for Refugees to welcome the Majedi/Momand family, who recently arrived from Afghanistan. If you’d like to donate non-food household items to help them, please see a donation list in the Narthex, and big, bright bags to items.
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.

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.
