The Mission of Good Shepherd is to be

A Place for all to belong...so we know we are not alone in this world

A Place for all to believe...so we can explore a relationship with God

A Place for all to become...so we can can put our words into action

So, whoever you are, wherever you come from, and
wherever you are in the journey of life
Welcome!

aka "Education for Ministry" is a way through study, prayer, and reflection to move towards a new understanding of the fullness of God's kingdom. A program developed by the School of Theology in Sewanee, EFM groups have provided an opportunity for people to deepen their faith as they learn about their beliefs and the history and theology of the church. We would like to start an EFM group this fall here at Good Shepherd. The group would meet for 36 weeks beginning in September and ending in June. We need at least 6 people in order to have a group. There is a fee involved as well. (As with all events at Good Shepherd, scholarships are available) If you would like to learn more, or if you are interested in signing up, please contact Stephanie Allen at 442-1134 x226.

  What is an Episcopalian, anyway? An Inquirer's Class will begin on August 22 at 4:00p. The Rector will lead a class for all who are interested in knowing more about faith and about The Episcopal Church. The class will cover the following type of topics: What do Episcopalians believe about the Bible? What does it mean to be "saved?" Do I have to believe everything in the creeds? Why do some people cross themselves? and more. Once you have taken this class you will be prepared to be confirmed and received into the Episcopal Church or to renew your baptismal vows. The class will meet August 22, 29, September 5, 12, 19 and 26th. Please contact Stephanie Allen for more information and to sign-up.
