At Good Shepherd we believe that getting to know each other and having fun together helps build a deep sense of community.

Learning Opportunities
At Good Shepherd, we think developing faith is a life-long journey. Therefore, we offer Bible Studies and other Educational Experiences throughout the week for children, youth and adults. These educational opportunities are designed to challenge, stretch and deepen faith, as it is lived out in our homes, workplaces and world.
Bible Study
Pastor Leesa teaches a “Making Sense of Scripture” series on Thursday Mornings at 10:00am beginning September 16. This series will use David Lose’s Video Study Guide to help us engage in a “kitchen table” conversation regarding seven major questions about the Bible. It will explain enough of the Bible’s history and nature to make it more accessible to you. The series is also a course on ‘how to read the Bible’ which is intended to give you more confidence in exploring the Bible’s content and claims on your own or in study with others.
Devotion & Enrichment
YogaDevotion: Classes begin in the breath, centering ourselves in the Presence of God, setting aside all that distracts us from the relationship God intends for us. The devotional time at the beginning of class opens with Scripture that speaks to a practice of faith during the breath work. The body of the class is a combination of standing, balance and floor poses. Music and silence are used to intentionally listen for God’s voice. The classes close with restorative yoga, a practice of calm alertness that allows reflection and thanksgiving for God’s presence in our lives.
Events
It is our goal to create opportunities for Adults of all ages to learn and grow in their faith through learning opportunities and social events.
