We would like to begin a Junior Youth Group for our 6th-8th graders! We would be involved in weekly Bible Studies, weekly Activities & a Community Service Event at least once a month! Here at Good Shepherd Lutheran we believe that the youth is our future and we want to establish the importance of God being first in our lives by keeping the youth involved with one another, in church and in our community! If you want to become a part of a great group of youth, making a difference... Parents & Youth please contact Kristin Shanen, Youth Director @ 779-6022. Remember... The Youth Program as well as each individual child needs the support of the parents and congregation! Without your direction and support we cannot make this happen! God Bless Us All!
Stations of the Cross The Christian Education team will be presenting a Stations of the Cross Experience in the Community Center once again this year -- on Palm Sunday between the worship services, after the late service, and one more evening TBA during Holy Week. We would like to invite the Congregation to join us for this hands-on event that will take us on one more step of our Lenten Journey to the Cross. We also need to have someone at each station to help guide the other travelers through, so if you might like to help out in this way, please get in touch with Janet McQuillan or Julie Dixon. We will provide all the props, prompts, or costuming; you need only show up. Thanks for your support!
Easter Eggs and Candy Easter is coming on April 4th! Once again this year, we will be having an Easter Egg Hunt for the children on Easter Sunday. In order to make this happen, we are looking for donations of plastic eggs, Easter candy, coins, and small toys from the Congregation. If you would like to help decorate Jacobson Hall or help the Youth with the breakfast (flipping pancakes, cooking sausage, etc.) on Easter morning, please get in contact with Julie Dixon or Kristin Shanen. Thank you in advance for all your support of our children!
The Wiser Lutheran Seniors who are Older will meet for their monthly potluck luncheon on Monday, March 15th at 12 Noon. It will be a St. Patrick’s Day Celebration with Lois & Ken Green in charge. Come enjoy the fellowship & good food if you are free at that time. Ruth Johnson Coordinator
