God’s Blessings for All Generations
Psalm 90:1

Today we begin an exciting year long celebration focused on Gethsemane Baptist Church's rich history.  Throughout the next twelve months, we will focus on God's Blessings for All Generations as our church has been a sanctuary for preaching, teaching, and praying. As we proceed on this journey, we hope to feed and nourish our souls and spirits through prayer.
