GLOSS Programs & Events
GLOSS has been established to provide development and enhancement programs for Christian young ladies ages 5 to 25 years old. GLOSS forms partnerships with schools, churches, neighborhoods, businesses and other organizations to aid GLOSS's four staple programs and three signature annual events:
PROGRAMS
Butterfly Café
Butterfly Café is a virtual concept. It can be hosted anywhere--someone’s home, a restaurant or another setting. It fulfills the need for the Sisters of GLOSS to come together weekly to learn, to laugh, to eat, to relax, to be pampered and to share their life experiences with one another.
Significant Service (Monthly – Saturday)
GLOSS service projects occur monthly. Projects may vary from nursing home visits to garden beautification to homeless soup kitchens.
Summit (Quarterly – Saturday)
GLOSS Summit fulfills the need for GLOSS members, volunteers and parents to worship together, discuss GLOSS business, participate in an activity and/or learn from a guest speaker.
