WHO WE ARE
We are a congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.
Good Shepherd Lutheran Church is a Christian Community that is: “Growing by Grace, Serving in Faith, and Sharing God’s Story!”
We recognize our brokenness and our absolute need for God’s Mercy and Grace.
So, in response to God’s outpouring of love for all of humanity, we are serving our neighbors, near and far, proclaiming the Good News, and demonstrating
what “God’s work, our hands” can do.
THE GOOD SHEPHERD COMMUNITY’S CORE VALUES
GRACE
This is where it all begins. With God’s Grace, we lack nothing. Grace makes the loving, caring, faithful relationship between God, ourselves and each other possible.
PEOPLE
We’re unique – we’re not all alike, and Lord God makes good use of this diversity. The full spectrum of diversity that God so loves is not yet fully revealed, but we do believe that God loves all of creation, in all its diversity.
All are welcome – everybody in Christ’s Holy Name!
SERVICE
Good Shepherd is a serving community. Believing and doing, serving in faith – these are marks of discipleship.
By believing and doing, by serving in faith, we are actively responding to God’s Grace. God loves us; therefore, we may love one another.
THE JOURNEY
Faith’s not simply a destination. Faith is a journey filled with twists and turns, and ups and downs. As people of God, we’re always on the move – and this is a good thing.
As “new creations in Christ”, we’re definitely not standing still. As we make our ways in these journeys, our relationship with the Lord deepens and broadens. As we gather together regularly in worship, prayer, service, learning, and sharing, we are nurtured and formed into Christian Community.
