Gethsemane UMC’s Strategic Plan
Gethsemane UMC is excited to release a draft of our community vision and master plan! The plan is the result of 18 months of community engagement and research. The draft plan includes a long-term vision for the church’s campus to include multigenerational housing units, local food production, renewable energy, indoor and outdoor spaces for community fitness, social gathering, as well as recommendations for short-term facility improvements and church capacity building. You can provide comments on the draft documents from now until March 10th by marking up hard copies that are available at the church or emailing bdrakeford@gethsemaneumc.org.
