Social Ministry
All ages at Good Shepherd are focused on serving others in our community and the world through works of charity and works of justice, just as Christ did. Through various activities and faith learning opportunities, we seek to foster love, unity and service to others in Christ’s name.
Our Social Ministry Team organizes a variety of service opportunities designed to feed, clothe, build and advocate for others. We are able to accomplish these ministries through the generous gifts of money, donations, time and talents from the members and friends of Good Shepherd.
