In addition to your time, we need jars of jelly, fold-over sandwich size plastic bags and sample size soap and shampoo for our washup kits.
These items can be dropped off in the library of the church; please label them- “For PB&J Gang.” DO NOT drop off bread.

Coming Soon Season 4 of The Chosen
Starting May 2nd and continuing for 8 weeks every Thursday Night at 7pm in Fellowship Hall. We invite all those who joined us to view the previous seasons over the past years to continue their journey. We also invite those who may have seen The Chosen “on their own” but would like to delve deeper and learn more about Jesus and the Apostles. As we have said before, we are offering a guided tour of the program and we promise to give you many insights into the gospels, the connections to the Old Testament and what may have been going on in the life of Jesus and the Apostles at the time.

Let's get the children more connected to what God has created for everyone to enjoy and appreciate!
The Garden Ministry proudly announces
The Good Shepherd Community Garden Project
The plan: Over the next few months, we will be adding garden beds behind the church with the hopes of providing an environment to nurture children's connection to the outdoor world. For the young members of the community this space will foster community involvement where they can actively participate in growing food donated to those in need.
There are many ways to get involved!
We would like to gather potential volunteer contact information
If interested, please email Veronica Miller at Ronki79@icloud.com or Joan Mulhall at Pcmulhall@verizon.net.
