🧸 Nursery Caregiver Opportunity at GBC Family

Caring for children in the nursery includes more than keeping little ones occupied: it means helping create a safe, respectful environment where families can worship and children can be cared for thoughtfully. We’re looking for someone who takes safety seriously, communicates clearly, and is willing to follow GBC Family’s procedures during Sunday services and church events.

This is a paid position starting at $16 per hour. The schedule is Sunday mornings from 9:15 AM until after the church service ends, with care and supervision of infants, toddlers, and children during church services and events.

If you’re interested or would like more details, contact Rachel, our receptionist, at 979-942-4985 or [email protected].

At GBC Family, we are committed to being The Church in Action: putting faith into practice through loving, responsible care for one another.

🌿 Every Child Deserves Room to Feel Comfortable

“Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.” : Philippians 2:4 NKJV

Children experience a church nursery in different ways. Some jump right into the room, while others need a quieter corner, a familiar comfort item, or a little extra time before engaging. Thoughtful nursery care notices those differences and responds with respect.

GBC Family is seeking a nursery caregiver who can help create a welcoming environment for infants, toddlers, and children during church services and events: one where each child can be supported with attentiveness, flexibility, and care.

This is a paid position starting at $16 per hour. The schedule is Sunday mornings from 9:15 AM until after the church service ends, with additional care during church events as needed.

Interested? Contact Rachel, our receptionist, at 979-942-4985 or [email protected] for more details.

At GBC Family, we are “The Church in Action,” putting faith into practice through compassionate care for one another.

Faith isn’t just for Sundays: it follows us into everyday places. 🏫🏀🏠

School. Home. Classes. Sports. Friendships. Work. Every moment is an opportunity to follow Jesus and let His love shape how we live.

At Young Disciples for Christ, teens can bring their real lives, real questions, and real experiences as we learn to live out our faith beyond the church building. As Scripture reminds us, “And whatever you do, do it heartily, as to the Lord and not to men” (Colossians 3:23, NKJV).

YDC meets every Sunday from 5:30–7:00 PM. Our launch window continues through Sunday, August 30, 2026. Transportation pickup begins at 5:00 PM.

Need a ride or have questions? Call 979-942-4985. Learn more at gbcfam.org.

Come grow with us and discover what it means to follow Jesus in ordinary places. 🙏

"Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers." : Ephesians 4:29 (NKJV)

A man's words carry weight. They can build up or tear down. They can speak life or bring discouragement. As men of God, we're called to use our words to strengthen our families, encourage our brothers, and point others to Jesus.

That's part of the journey from milk to meat : growing so that our speech reflects His grace.

At Milkmen to Meatmen, we're building a brotherhood that speaks life, prays together, and sharpens one another in love.

We meet every Tuesday at 6:30 PM at GBC Family.
