Prayer Ministry

A church that desires to make an impact needs to pray earnestly on her knees. God has laid upon our hearts to be a church of prayer and worship for the city and the nation. Join us for:

Upper Room Prayer | GBC@IMPACT, 7am, Tuesday
This is a place we have set apart to host the presence of God. The more we soak in His presence, the more He reveals His heart to us. We often come without an agenda, and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us in a time of worship and prayer.

Prayer Meeting | GBC@IMPACT, 8.15pm, Wednesday
We meet to pray for church-wide ministries every 1^st and 3^rd Wednesday of the month. Every other Wednesday, small groups meet to pray at various locations.

Prayer Closet | GBC@IMPACT, 7am – 7pm, Monday – Sunday
GBC’s Prayer Closet is a place for individuals to spend quiet moments by themselves to seek the Lord, soak in His presence & hear from Him. It was set up as part of a broader strategy to help individuals connect with God and in the process to raise the level of prayer & intercession of individuals and of the church. We want to encourage everyone to make use of this facility.

Worship

Worship is an important pillar in GBC. In any congregated event, service or gathering, the worship team leads and enables the people to enter into God’s life-changing and transforming presence through praise and worship – singing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs to the audience of One.

For those who have heard the call of God, are passionate and blessed with musical talent and good voice, we invite you to be part of our team!

Media

The team often works behind the scenes to set the stage for Sunday worship as well as other events. Using audio, visual and lighting, we try to provide an atmosphere that helps worshippers express their worship. The photography section also captures significant moments in GBC’s life and helps to tell our church’s story.

If the above describes you, the media team welcomes you!

Georgetown Baptist Kindergarten

Georgetown Baptist Kindergarten (GBK) provides an avenue for the holistic development of children aged 3-6 using age-appropriate activities, at an affordable fee. The kindergarten has a solid child-centred thematic curriculum that encompasses play-based learning, so that the entire learning process is fun for preschoolers!

While we acknowledge that preparing a child academically for entry into the Primary School is important, we are also concerned with his/her social, emotional, physical and spiritual development. As such, GBK is a safe place where children are loved for who they are, and are guided according to their learning pace.

Our Kindergarten staff comprises of a team of passionate, dedicated, loving and experienced personnel who view teaching as a ministry and not just a job. We are committed to invest our lives in the children that God has brought to us and to make education a child-centred process rather than a teacher-centred process.

School hours are Monday-Friday, 8.30am-12.30pm.

South Home Tuition

GBC recognize that the South Home children need extra tutoring in order for them to excel in their studies. In view of that, a group of people with a passion to help these children come on Saturdays and weekdays to teach them. Along with this is the desire to encourage and motivate them to improve themselves.

As a way to reach out to other needy children beyond the South Home, South Home tuition seeks to open their class to include them.

Who We Are

GBC was formed in 1956 and since then, has grown to be a contemporary and vibrant church with a vision to impact lives and transform our communities for God’s glory.

We are one church on two sites i.e., GBC@IMPACT and GBC@14, along Jalan Larut and we serve multiple congregations in English, Mandarin, Hokkien, Bahasa Malaysia and Myanmarese. Today, our ministries cater to a wide age range, from toddlers to seniors. The ministries and church-life are also holistic; everyone can readily engage through worship, discipleship, service, outreach and a variety of other means.

Far from being just an organization, we seek to be a loving family of God where people are valued and strong relationships are built; where people are proud to belong and feel at home.

We are committed to help everyone grow deeper in God and become more like Jesus Christ. Under God’s leading, we aim to be a church without walls; putting people before processes and making a difference through partnership with other churches to impact Penang and beyond.

We believe that God has called us to make a lasting difference, one life at a time. We look forward to this exciting journey as we are guided by His word and empowered by His Spirit.

“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.”

Matthew 28:19-20
