LEARN ABOUT OUR PHILOSOPHY & GOOD WORKS
Word & Sacrament Worship Service – Sunday 9:00am|Refreshments Follow
Worship at Good Shepherd draws from liturgical traditions, shaped for contemporary people. The service settings, drawn from the Evangelical Lutheran Book of Worship and other resources, offer a rich variety of music that is traditional, contemporary, and global. The Sacrament of Holy Communion is celebrated at all services. All who believe in Christ’s presence in this sacrament are welcome at the Lord’s Table. Those too young to commune may receive a blessing rather than bread and wine.
Good Shepherd is served by Rev. Dr. Arnold Thomas. Pastor Arnold can be reached on the church phone at 802-899-3932, on his cell phone at 802-503-9666 or by email at pastorthomas@goodshepherdjericho.org. Please feel free to contact him for pastoral care concerns.
