As in other faith communities, COVID has caused a number of our ministries to be put on hold due to an abundance of caution and Diocesan Protocols. Our Ministries continue to evolve and our Website continues to be a work in progress. 

Godly Play Children’s Ministry 

This distinctive ministry to children is held most Sundays during the 11 a.m. Service. Godly Play helps children become more fully aware of the mystery of God’s presence in their lives. It’s about understanding how each of the stories of God’s people connects with the child’s own experience and relationship with God. If you are interested in assisting with Godly Play or would like more information regarding this ministry, please see the Rector or speak with one of the leaders.

Children's Corner

A fully equipped children's corner is available for infants, toddlers, and children during all services. We are always seeking caring mothers and fathers to sit with the children during service times.  Don't worry about missing the church service because this Children's Corner is inside our worship space.  If you feel called to this ministry, please contact the Church Office.

Adult Study Groups

Periodically, courses are led by the Rector (sometimes in conjunction with the Parish of the Ascension) to discuss faith, the Scriptures, Christian belief and practices. These groups usually combine learning and discussion with good food and fellowship. Feel free to join us for a study group. Details of these groups will be announced in the Bulletin and Facebook.

Confirmation Preparation

Confirmation instruction is offered at the Parish of the Good Shepherd. Please contact the Parish Office for more information on Confirmation dates and classes. Our Rector, along with the Confirmation Instructors and Prayer Partners, will meet with the candidates and their families to prepare them for this important time in their Christian lives.
