Immigration is a timely issue that relates to Gethsemane’s outreach to the Latino community in our area.

On May 11 attorney Colleen Beebe will speak on the topic of “Immigration and the Law.” On May 18 Bob Shebeck will speak on the topic of “The Economics of Immigration.” There are many misperceptions in both of these areas.

I invite you all to join me for another “Fireside Chat” where we can continue the conversation of what the next steps of our journey together at Gethsemane might be. We will take some time to get to know one another, learn what you are passionate about, and begin the discussion of where we think God is leading us together. The church council has begun the process of developing a five-year plan and I want you to be a part of that process. You can sign up in the Friendship Folder or by calling the church office, but drop-ins are always welcome. | ||
