Thank You for Your Support of the People of Haiti

Greenville Community Church sent a total of $3065.00 to help earthquake victims. Our partner in support of the recovery effort is Church World Service. Good Work!


The Food Pantry

The Food Pantry needs donations all year long. One of the biggest needs is for peanut butter. Why not bring a jar of peanut butter to church next week?


Foreign exchange students from Spain

Foreign exchange students from Spain need short-term host families in July 1 – 27. The students are part of a program to improve English language skills and to experience American culture and family life. Host families provide a bed, some meals, transportation to the Course Center in Scarsdale, and a welcoming family environment. You can make a big difference for these students! For further information or to make a recommendation, please contact Bill Findley at 423-505-5152 or william.findley@ef.com.


Sunday Flowers

You are invited to sponsor flowers that are placed under the Cross in the sanctuary each Sunday. The sign-up schedule for 2010 is now open and being filled. Contact the church office or see the chart posted on the bulletin board outside the office select a date. The cost per Sunday is $35.00.

If you signed up for flowers during 2009, please remember to pay for your dates if you haven't done so already.


At Home with the Word

This is a daily Bible reading guide from Advent 2009 to Advent 2010. It is available in the church foyer.


Reorganization of Our Sunday Ushering Function

The Growth Committee has recommended, and Consistory has approved, a reorganization of our Sunday ushering function. The new structure is now being organized and will consist of five usher teams, each with a leader captain). There will be 7 or 8 persons on each team, including the captain, assuming that most eligible usher candidates agree to serve. This structure will provide for better training, a broader spreading of assignments so that no one will usher more than once every 6 or 7 weeks, a readily available list of substitutes when needed, a more effective shepherding function for visitors, and removal of the need for the church office to embark on a recruiting mission every week.


Church Book Discussion Group: Second Tuesday of Each Month at 7:30PM

We have a Church Book Discussion Group which meets once a month, usually on the second Tuesday. New members are always welcome. Come and join us!

The next Book Club event will be March 9th at 7:30 p.m. Our book is The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver.

For the location or more information, call or email the church office:
