Good Shepherd recognizes that everyone is on a unique spiritual journey. With this in mind, we offer various adult classes and small groups that offer Christ-centered spiritual growth and encouragement for every season of our lives to deepen our relationship with God.

Music Ministry (All)
Praise God through Song – Music is an integral part of not only our worship liturgy, but it is also a way that you can offer praise to God. If you like to lift up your voice in song, consider joining the Celebration Choir. Our Celebration Choir leads us in worship and during special seasons such as Advent and Holy Week. Our Handbell Choir plays several times a year and during special seasons.
Prior singing or handbell experience is unnecessary; all you need is a heart willing to sing a joyful noise unto the Lord. A bonus benefit is getting to know new people.
Handbell Choir practice meets Wed., from 6-7 p.m., and Choir practice is from 7-8 p.m.
Contact Director of Music Ministries Lindy Moore for more information.
Saturday
Prayer Shawl Ministry (All)
Prayer shawls are a tangible sign of God’s love for those needing comfort. If you knit, crochet, quilt, or sew, join us.
