Make plans to enjoy “Something’s Coming,” another entertaining and engaging show written by Lane Holmstrom and performed by our very talented Gethsemane Youth. Tickets include dinner and show, and there will be lots of silent and live auction items that you can bid on. Thanks for supporting our youth and continuing this joyful tradition.
Sunday, April 2, 6:30pm,
Tap Brewing Co-op, 10615 Metric Blvd.
Come for a cold drink, fellowship and casual faith conversation. Just look for a table tent with Martin Luther holding a beer mug…that’ll be us!
The conversation is open to anyone regardless of church membership or faith affiliation, so please invite your friends! Cheers!

The theme: “Transformed by Grace on the Mountain” —Matthew 17:1-9. Registration forms/information available in the narthex.
This is a very special opportunity for friends and all members of the congregational family: singles, couples, those with and without children, from the very young to the not so young in years, but all young in spirit.
All are “Called by Grace” to come enjoy a relaxed, informal time, to share thoughts, histories, dreams, conversations, laughter, songs, the bread and wine of communion, the fresh air of the hill country, and good food.
“Led by Faith”, you may climb to the cross on the mountain, read your Bibles, play, eat, visit, and rock on the porch.
“Welcoming All to Share God’s Love”, we will meet new friends and have time to relax and be with those we may not know so well. This is a great event to invite friends to share in the family life of Gethsemane.
Please print the 2017 Family of Gethsemane Retreat Brochure and return to Dar, Belinda or Pastor Susie by February 21st.
