Prayer Requests
The people of The Church of the Good Shepherd are eager to join you in lifting your prayers to God. Please tell us how we can pray with you by submitting a prayer request. Thinking about Stewardship
Stewardship begins with an understanding that everything we have comes from God. We are blessed in so many different ways by a God who is active in our own lives as well as scripture, history and all of creation. Grateful for the gifts, large and small, which God has given us, we are invited by God to respond to God’s grace by generously giving back, by sharing the gifts and blessings that have been bestowed upon us, and by caring for the world which God has entrusted to us. Stewardship is about getting involved – giving your time, sharing your gifts and talents, and supporting our church financially. Your involvement enables the Church of the Good Shepherd to do its work and ministry. Our 2024 giving goal is $675,000. For more information please our 2024 Stewardship page. Midweek Eucharist
