Our Mission Statement
Good Shepherd is a community of God's people gathered together in Christ to reflect God's love.
We are committed to celebrating God’s word as a congregation and as individuals through word and action. Our mission is to provide meaningful worship, be messengers of God’s love, serve our fellow human beings with respect, be a source of strength and comfort in our community and provide instruction in Christian values for all of God’s children.
All this is to be done that we might grow in faith, nurture others in using their unique God-given gifts and be a source of peace and hope in our world.

A Message from Pastor Chris about Good Shepherd's response to the coronavirus
Good Shepherd is responding to the recent health concerns by cancelling all our physical gatherings. Keep checking our website for updated information about when we will resume our regular worship services, bible studies, Sunday School and Confirmation. Our office is also being staffed in a limited manner. You can also call the church office where the answering machine will have updated information and there you may also find a direct number to Pastor Buresh to be used for emergencies.
During this time, please go to our YouTube page to participate in our virtual Worship Services. Bulletins for those services can be found by viewing the individual video's description. A virtual Sunday School experience for families can be found by on that YouTube page with supplemental resources available by clicking HERE. Request the pin for these Sunday School resources by voicing your request in the “Contact Us” tab above.
This time gives us opportunity to be the Body of Christ. We are collecting names and phone numbers of people who would be willing to go run to get groceries or prescription medicine for someone whom the exposure created by going out could be severe. If you are able to help, let us know by clicking the “Contact Us” tab at the top of the page and sharing your name and phone number.
Also, if you find yourself needing things but don’t want to risk the exposure going out creates, please call or get in touch through the “Contact Us” tab.
For up to the date information, please join our email list by clicking the “Contact Us” tab and then filling out the required information, making sure to include in the text your desire to be put on our email list. Also check out our Facebook page.
We look forward to seeing God work through these interesting times and appreciate your turning not only to Good Shepherd, but also to God as we reflect together on a message of hope. Because that's the message God offers through Jesus Christ.
In Service,
Pastor Chris
