Affordable Workforce Housing Project Passes at Charge Conference

Dear Church Family,

This Sunday afternoon, March 5th, members of our church gathered for a Church Conference led by our District Superintendent, Rev. Debra Hobbs Mason, to consider the Workforce Housing Study Team’s proposal to build housing on our campus in the heart of Denton. After an overview of the project and a question and answer period, members of our church voted 94% (205-12) in favor of the proposal.

We are grateful for the diligent work of the Study Team and Lay Leadership to begin bringing this God-sized dream to reality. And we are grateful for all those who prayed, researched, attended, and voted their conscience, whether in favor or not. We are all part of this church together and need each other’s wisdom along the way. We are committed to continue leading all of our church forward together in love of God and love of our neighbors as ourselves. 

May God continue to be with this project and with the wonderful church family at First United Methodist Church of Denton as we seek to shine God’s love into every life. 

In Christ,
Pastor Don
Pastor Jonathan
