Invitation to participate
WORSHIP SERVE BELONGNew Worship Series: Pain & SufferingWe hear about terrible things happening everyday around the world. Whatever it is – illness, death, natural disasters, or other forces that seem to strike without warning – the experience of tragedy is universal. Whether we suffer ourselves or see those we love in pain, eventually we all ask: “If God is good, why do bad things happen?” This new 4-week worship series begins August 6 and will include material to work through with others. A discussion group will meet in the Gathering Place Monday nights at 6:30 p.m. beginning August 7.
Visioning SessionWe are nearing the end of our first-ever Strategic Plan for Good Shepherd. Much has been accomplished as we have been intentional about our vision to transform one life at a time by sharing Jesus in energizing and compelling ways! As we enter into the season of creating the next 3-year Strategic Plan, you are invited to dream about the future and share visions of what Good Shepherd will look like in the next 3 years. The session will be held TODAY from 4 - 6 p.m. in the Gathering Place.
Back-to-School PrayerJoin us as we bless our students and teachers returning to school! On Sunday, August 13, there will be a special time in worship that we will have the opportunity to pray for those beginning a new school year. Plan to attend and invite a friend!

While youth are outside, parents will be in the worship center hearing from Pastor Mark Sheets as he unpacks a teenager’s identity, autonomy, and belonging. This is also your chance to learn everything you’ll need to know for the upcoming year! - Contact Darrick Strzelecki [email protected] or Kalee Johnson [email protected].
