Sharing a special time with our kids at Green Pastures in Kijabe
Gurnee Community Church (GCC), located at 4555 Old Grand Avenue in Gurnee, Illinois, is a vibrant, non-denominational Christian congregation committed to leading people into a growing faith in Jesus Christ. Driven by a deep sense of mission, GCC seeks to meet the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of its neighbors—both near and far—through sacrificial giving of time, energy, and resources.
It looks like craft time.
A key part of this mission is their unwavering support of international ministry partners, including Shepherd’s Little Lambs. In 2012, GCC sent its first team to witness firsthand the impact of our work. With 25 members, it remains the largest team we have ever hosted. Since then, they have continued to send teams every other year, offering hands-on support and encouragement to our staff and students.
We are deeply grateful for the partnership and generosity of Gurnee Community Church. Their commitment reflects the heart of true service, and we are honored to call them Partners in Purpose!
Pastor Chris and Machaa!
