A Gala and Silent Auction
Purpose
This special event aims to celebrate our achievements, strengthen community bonds, and honor our partners and outreach efforts dedicated to transforming lives.
Details
We are planning an elegant evening of fine dining, grand company, and dancing at the beautiful and iconic Country Club at Woodmore in Mitchellville on Friday, November 15, 2024, from 7:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.
Silent Auction
The highlight of our annual fundraiser, the silent auction, will add to the evening’s excitement! We are contacting our congregation, friends of Gethsemane, our church cluster, community partners, Prince George’s County political community, and dignitaries to join in our celebration.
We are soliciting donations for the silent auction and appreciate any contributions that meet our criteria. Please solicit donations to the auction or the gala if you belong to sororities, fraternities, professional or social organizations, clubs, businesses, or other memberships. Every effort is appreciated.
Donation
To continue our path of service and fulfill Gethsemane’s mission and vision, we are aspiring to raise $100,000. To attend the gala, we request a minimum donation of $250.00 for adults and $125.00 for children ten and under. Please feel free to contribute more if you wish. All proceeds, except the event cost, will be used to enhance our operations, invest in our ministries, and provide meaningful outreach and services to our community.
