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.
