Children may join the course at any age, but the content is geared toward those who can do a bit of independent reading (1st-3rd grades). Parents attend class with their children.

Volunteers Needed for HABITAT 2023 Episcopal Build

Build 2023 begins Saturday, March 11th, and Good Shepherd and Episcopal Campus Ministry (ECM) Day is April 22nd! Volunteers are needed to make the day a success, and you may sign up HERE. And get this: 16 and 17 year olds are welcome to participate with parental consent. Please note: anyone is welcome to volunteer at any time, not just on the 22nd; however, the 22nd is when CGS and ECM are designated to provide significant help.
