Like each of us, our building and grounds have undergone tremendous transformation over the past two years. Personal growth and development is often messy, and any of our volunteers can tell you that the transformation of our grounds was definitely messy! As the native plants wake up to feed pollinators and birds, we want to take a moment on Earth Day to give thanks again for the volunteers that shared their time, talents, and treasure in Healing the Earth around Good Shepherd, and ask for continued blessings for our space. On Sunday, April 24, following the 10:30am worship service, please join the community outside for a blessing of the Earth and join in planting a new native shrub with refreshments and fellowship to follow (weather permitting).
