MEET THE ROC FITNESS INSTRUCTORS
Partner: “one who shares something with another”
Serving Jesus and sharing him with others in non-traditional ways is what the Fitness Ministry Leaders have partnered together to accomplish here at GBC. This partnering concept is exemplified each week as our instructors represent Christ in front of their classes, building relationships and ministering to their students on a real and personal level. Their faith is integrated with their desire to see people stay healthy physically. As creative instructors, they strive to provide fun and effective classes. But it’s in using the influence of Contemporary Christian music and ending class with a devotion and prayer that they get a chance to let their light shine. They are devoted volunteers, and this is their ministry. To the folks in our community without a church home, they may be the only “light” they experience each week. To the followers of Christ they’re an encouragement, a partner on the journey. God bless our Fitness Instructors, whose passion for people and the Lord is leading more and more folks to become followers of Christ. Here's a brief intro of our instructors...
