Join us for Prayer Crafting! During this multi-week Prayer Crafting Workshop, we will: survey the diverse prayers available in our prayer book; break down the structure of these prayers, particularly those known as Collects; and then use this structure and the Bible to craft prayers tailored to the life circumstances, aspirations and ministries of each participant. Visit our Community 101 page for information and to register!

Tune in to Hear These Words, a weekly podcast discussion of Scripture featuring guests from the Good Shepherd community, clergy, and scholars from around the nation! Available soon wherever you listen to podcasts! Episodes are also posted on our website under the GROW tab.
