Taking care of the reception food and set up is one of the ways we take care of people in our community when someone dies. When a funeral is scheduled the call for help goes out over email for food and help setting up.

To be added to the list of people who get the email, please send your name and email address to Virginia Murray using the button below.

Lord of the Streets is a church community that Restores and Rebuilds lives through ministries and relationships with people facing homelessness.

RESTORE: We work and pray to help restore every person to God's design: a right relationship with God, with self, with family and those we have offended, with the Church, and society.

REBUILD: We help each person to rebuild a life marked by 1) their belief in their inherent dignity, and 2) by habits of health of body and mind and spirit, and 3) productivity.

Good Shepherd Supports LOTS through donations of money and specific items requested.

Mission Northeast provides food, clothing and household items, as well as adult classes designed to build skills and support with job searches. Staff and volunteers build relationships with clients by getting to know them and helping them above and beyond their basic needs.

Do you like to make cookies? Are you outgoing? Join the crew that welcomes visitors by bringing them homemade cookies and information about life at Good Shepherd. The time commitment for this ministry is minimal, and giving a warm welcome to newcomers is extremely important!

If you are interested in serving in this way, contact Kanon Gouralt.

There are two ways to serve ill and shut-in members of our church community. Flower Ministry members make simple flower arrangements from the flowers used in Sunday services and simply drop them off. Lay Eucharistic Visitors are trained to take the Eucharistic elements to members who can’t make it to church.

Look for the Flower Guild and Lay Eucharistic Visitors on the Liturgical Ministries page to find out more.
