​Serving Our Neighbors

The Church of the Good Shepherd has a long history of being actively involved in our community, having played key roles in starting such Raleigh fixtures as Rex Hospital and the Shepherd’s Table Soup Kitchen.  Many of our parishioners are still involved in volunteering with both of these now well-established organizations. 
CGS Volunteer Form
Beyond Our Doors– provide: 1) respite and an Episcopal noonday service in the Sanctuary on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 11:30am - 1:00pm AND 2) opportunities to partner with like-minded organizations serving our neighbors in need.

Cheshire House Meals - provide a lunch time meal for approximately 25 college students on the 2nd Sunday each month, September–May. Many  times two parishioners will share this meal responsibility.

Family Promise - help CGS act as a support church for First Presbyterian for one night of a week-long stay per quarter. Family Promise helps families transitioning from homelessness. We provide and serve one evening meal, drive a van for participants, and provide overnight support (1 male & 1 female) at First Presbyterian.

Habitat for Humanity – assist area churches in “Episcopal Build” to build houses for low income families OR in the provision of lunch and drink for the workers.

Lowes Foods Pick-up (for Shepherd’s Table Soup Kitchen) – pick up food items for one month of Sundays from the store on Strickland Road and deliver to the Soup Kitchen.

Meals on Wheels – deliver a hot, prepared lunch to homebound Raleigh residents on the 4th Thursday of each month  (takes approximately 2 hours midday).

ONEWake members speak up for affordable housing, living job wages, and educational opportunity as part of this non-partisan, multi-racial group of 40+ congregations!

Mission Trips – participate in events to provide relief, comfort and hope to those outside our parish

St. Francis Needlework Guild – knit/crochet prayer shawls, hats, scarves, baby blankets and caps for congregation members and those in need from the Shepherd’s Table, Rex Hospital, Wake Medical Center, and the Christmas at Sea Project of the Seaman’s Institute.

St. Nicholas Tree – pick a child from this tree during Advent to surprise at Christmas with a wrapped toy, book and/or clothing.

Shepherd’s Table Soup Kitchen – assist in preparation, serving and clean-up of a lunchtime meal for Raleigh’s working poor Monday – Friday from our kitchen downstairs.

United Thank Offering  - assist in the collection of this separate annual offering to be distributed by national grants to charitable causes. 

Warmth for Wake – with a group of parishioners, cut, and deliver firewood to our neighbors in need.
