MINISTRIES

OUR MINISTRIES

ECW

To empower the women of the church to grow in Christian discipleship. Together we pray, worship, lead, mentor, give, sacrifice, fellowship and serve others. Dues are not collected. The annual Rainbow Tea is the direct source of funds. Funds and special donations support projects and activities to enhance the spiritual life with fellowship and outreach programs of Good Shepherd.

CHERRIO CLUB

The purpose of the Cheerio Club is to visit the sick and shut-in members of Good Shepherd. To provide assistance to bereaved families during their time of sorrow by preparing dinner for the repast if they so desire. If not, a memorial gift is given to the church in memory of the deceased. The members’ monthly dues fund the Cheerio Club’s activities throughout the year.
