Something remarkable is taking shape at Gobin.

Our new slate roof is nearly complete. One visible sign of the work already underway through the Second Century Commitment to preserve and renew this remarkable place for generations to come.

And now we’re approaching an important moment.
Sunday, September 27 will be Commitment Sunday.

Throughout September, we’ll share more about what has already been made possible, the work still ahead, and how the whole Gobin community can be part of Gobin’s second century.

For generations, others made Gobin possible for us.

Now it is our turn.

Our Second Century. Our Commitment.
September 27

We have some very good news to share about The Second Century Commitment and the preservation of Gobin’s historic building.

Because bids for several major exterior projects came in under budget, the National Fund for Sacred Places has approved an expanded scope of work, allowing portions of their awarded grant to support much-needed restoration inside the building as well.

Our overall campaign goal remains $2 million. The impact of those dollars will now be even greater.

In addition to the critical exterior preservation already planned, the expanded work will include

• Extensive plaster repair and repainting in the sanctuary
• Complete refurbishment of our historic exterior doors
• Repairs to interior sections of stained glass windows
• Repair or replacement of broken and deteriorated basement windows
• Additional interior limestone repairs and electrical work
• Continued preservation work on the bell tower and other historic features

These are not simply cosmetic improvements. They are part of caring responsibly for a building that has served generations of worshippers, DePauw students, musicians, community organizations, neighbors, and friends: and preparing it to serve generations still to come.

We are deeply grateful to the National Fund for Sacred Places for recognizing the importance of this work and allowing us to expand the project. And we are grateful for every person who has already contributed, pledged, encouraged, and helped us imagine what Gobin’s second century can look like.

The goal hasn’t changed. The opportunity has grown.

We celebrate this good news as we continue caring for this beloved community asset. Preserving its beauty, strengthening its future, and keeping its doors open wide.

A warm welcome to our DePauw students! 💛

DePauw University Vice President for Student Affairs and Dean of Students Dr. John Mark Day joined us for today’s service, sharing a message and helping us welcome students back to campus for a new school year.

We’re excited to continue welcoming our DePauw community! Join us next Sunday as DePauw President Dr. Lori White joins us for worship and does the same. We’d love to see you there!
