Children's Ministry
Children's Ministry at GLCC is a sacred and transformative endeavor that centers on the mission of making disciples of Jesus. We recognize the importance of nurturing and guiding young hearts and minds towards a deep, personal relationship with God. By creating engaging and age-appropriate environments, teaching biblical truths, and fostering a sense of community and belonging, our children's ministry seeks to partner with parents in equipping children with a solid foundation in their faith.
Through intentional discipleship, children are empowered to grow in their understanding of God's love, develop a personal relationship with Jesus, and actively live out their faith in their daily lives. The goal is not only to impart knowledge but to instill a lifelong commitment to following Christ, allowing children to become faithful and active disciples who impact their families, communities, and the world around them.
Children's Ministry at GLCC gathers each Sunday morning in age-appropriate rooms within the safety of our children's ministry wing. GLCC has Children's Ministry classes during each service at 9:00 & 10:30! Preschoolers (3-4 year olds) are welcome to join their class at 8:45am prior to the 9:00am service and 10:15am prior to the 10:30am service. Kindergarten-2nd graders and 3rd-5th graders join their class after worshipping with their families in the Worship Center. Note: the 9:00am service will not have nursery staff available at this time, but our nursery room will be available for parents of 0-2 years olds to bring their babies in for a break if needed. A livestream of the service will be available in this room. Nursery is provided for 0-2 year olds at the 10:30am service.
We have an amazing team of leaders ready to meet you and your children! GLCC Children's Ministry uses the Gospel Project curriculum, information can be found here.

Student Ministry
Student ministry at GLCC is a dynamic and purposeful journey that revolves around the central mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ. We recognize the unique challenges and opportunities of adolescence and strive to create an environment where young people can encounter God, grow in their faith, and develop a personal relationship with Jesus.
Through intentional discipleship, we strive to partner with parents to equip and empower young individuals to live out their faith authentically and passionately. We offer space for deepening biblical knowledge, engaging in worship and prayer, fostering community, and nurturing spiritual growth. The ultimate goal is to raise up a generation of young disciples who love and follow Jesus wholeheartedly, impacting their families, schools, and communities with the transformative power of the gospel.
Our youth ministry team would love to come alongside parents to serve as a guiding light, providing mentorship, support, and resources as young people navigate the complexities of their lives while firmly rooted in the love and teachings of Christ.
Our Youth Ministry (6th-12th grade) gathers on Sunday nights from 5:30-8:00 during the school year with opportunities for youth camps, mission trips, and other adventures during the summer. If you have any questions or would like to connect, please contact chris@gunlakechurch.org
Family Ministry
Family Ministry at Gun Lake Community Church focuses on discipleship and mission for all ages by fostering meaningful connections, providing approachable resources, and creating opportunities for Life Together through worship, learning and service. We believe the family is the most vital place for nurturing and passing down faith from one generation to the next.
We are committed to intentionally modeling the journey of discovery, spiritual growth, and discipleship by strategically engaging parents, children, and extended family with the life and ministry of Jesus. Through this strategy, family ministry seeks to equip and empower families to live out their faith authentically, both within their homes and in their communities. We want to see families experience the fullness of life, hope, and joy of Christ and then share it with others.
