SERVE AT GOOD SHEPHERD

Serve at Good Shepherd

At Good Shepherd we are convinced that God gathers gifts in this place and then sits back and watches how we use them. Do you play the oboe, teach mindfulness meditation, enjoy public speaking, quilt, garden, or sing? You will find a list of some (but not all) of the traditional ways to participate below. Let your light shine!

Sunday mornings:

  • Assisting Ministers (prayer of the prayers)

  • Greeter (offer a friendly, intentional welcome)

  • Communion Assistant (assist with the distribution of Communion)

  • Usher (pass out bulletins, monitor the door, help seat those who need help)

  • Lector ( scripture reader)

  • Acolyte (lighter of candles)

  • Cantor (lead congregational song, often chanting the psalm)

  • Music (choose hymns on a monthly basis and contribute to musical variety in worship)

  • Fellowship Host (make the coffee, set up refreshments)

  • Trash (dump trash and wheel the containers to the curb)

Beyond our weekly worship:

  • Teachers and Helpers for Sunday School September through May

  • Teachers/Learners: We have occasional adult forums and welcome your voice as a teacher

  • Visit homebound people (in teams)

  • “Meet and Eat” Once a month - typically the Third Thursday - we go out to a local restaurant for lunch. Come alone or bring a friend - we’ll save room at the table for you!

  • The Church Choir and the Hand-Bell Choir: Led by Linda Fischer (choir) and Ashleigh Roberts (bell choir), these groups provide occasional musical offerings during worship.
