The team is a lively and dedicated group that plays a vital role in maintaining the church and its grounds. We have a work list that guides us each week

which includes repairs, maintenance, and inspection. We are always busy, especially during celebrations such as Christmas and Easter.


No special skills are required to join us, only a desire to come together for light work and great fellowship! We have been accused of specializing in coffee breaks!

Stewardship is taking care of our church by encouraging active participation and joyful giving of our TIME, TALENT, and FINANCIAL RESOURCES, with no expected "personal return". 


Our Stewardship Committee prayerfully asks each church member to consider making a personal commitment to fulfill and enhance Good Shepherd's mission statement and to make our church an active extension of GOD'S KINGDOM here on earth. 

Stewardship is so much more than simply taking care of our church's financial needs and obligations. STEWARDSHIP is GRACE and LOVE, and everything we do inside and outside our church.


 STEWARDSHIP is what we DO after we say we BELIEVE. 

Evangelism & Communications

Evangelism & Communications

Evangelism & Communications

The Evangelism & Communications team handles communications and outreach, helping keep us connected to each other. Recent projects include a new online directory and keeping our membership roles up to date. They reach out to members we have not seen in a while and ensure we are touching everyone through our various communication channels.  

Fellowship

We build community through fellowship, and this team feeds us – literally and spiritually!

We build community through fellowship, and this team feeds us – literally and spiritually! The fellowship team hosts the weekly post-service fellowship "coffee hour" and provides refreshments after special services and events.  They put on a Fish Fry every Friday during Lent that is nearly always sold out and Trunk-or-Treat for local kids at Halloween. If you enjoy meeting people or feeding people you can volunteer as often as you wish, or sign up to bring baked goods.

Worship & Music

  •  Contemporary Band
  • Choir
  • Creative/Drama team
  • Soundboard and other Tech Support
  • Ushers
  • Readers
  • Communion Assistants
  • Altar Guild

There are opportunities to get involved in all areas - whether in a visible way or behind the scenes – occasionally, weekly or monthly.
