The building remained empty and for sale over the past two years. Alachua County considered buying the property in March 2021 as a service hub for High Springs, Alachua and Newberry. But, the county commission decided to let the opportunity pass

Later in 2021, the church grounds became one of Florida’s first monoclonal antibody sites and averaged 130 patients per day in the first week.
