What does a night at GNC look like?

To start the night off right, kids are served pizza EVERY WEEK! As they proceed to their respective age groups, your child will encounter hands-on learning in the form of interactive songs, crazy activities, and games that reinforce each lesson. â€‹They’ll not only enjoy their time connecting with friends, but with dedicated and faithful leaders who have been called to serve in this fun and rewarding ministry!

Meet Our Good News Club Director,

Chris VanOstrand

When Miss Chris retired from a career as a middle school Math teacher in 2019, she prayed for ways to use her gift of teaching for the Lord. Never would she have imagined that God would lead her, along with several others, to begin a Good News Club! As Director, Chris oversees all three clubs, serving children in grades Pre-K thru 9. Chris’ passion is to see children make decisions to accept Jesus, follow Him closely, and be bold in telling others the Good News! She enjoys serving alongside her husband, Jamie, a group leader in GNC. Together, they are truly amazed at how much children soak up about God (even when the kids are wiggly)!
