Good Shepherd remains closed for in-person worship services. Please continue to watch our online worship services through the links below.
In an abundance of love and concern, it is the consensus of our Congregation Council that we cannot provide the necessary safety measures to accomplish that at this time. The Council has appointed a COVID-19 Response Task Force to work through the very detailed guidance for reopening provided by our synod and by the CDC. We are not setting another target date for reopening at this time, as many things still change from day to day. We will be communicating with you regularly, so please stay alert for those messages. Many new details can be found under our Covid-19 tab at the top of the page. We will also continue to post Sunday worship services for you on our website.
