Gethsemane UMC Green Team
Building on the Sacred Grounds garden installation project, The Capital Market and Gethsemane United Methodist Church are coming together to launch the Sacred Grounds Green Team. The Green Team will converge as a gathering of congregants and community members committed to caring for God’s Creation and engaging in the climate movement.
What is the Green Team?
A welcoming, intergenerational space where we meet every third Thursday to learn, share, and take action around environmental stewardship in ways that are rooted in community.
When: Every Third Thursday, 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Where: 910 Addison Road South, Capitol Heights, MD 20743 LUNCH IS PROVIDED!
In each Green Team gathering, we will:
- INSPIRE intergenerational conversations that promote lasting change
- CONSERVE by building tangible skills that increase confidence working in nature
- EDUCATE ourselves with subject-matter experts who break down policies impacting our community
- FELLOWSHIP by connecting with one another as we learn to preserve God’s Creation
Whether you’re deeply involved in environmental work or just curious about where to start, there is a place for you at the table.
What’s next?
