Shepherd's Heart 06/19/26
Dear Good Shepherd,
I am humbled by the way God is moving in the life of Good Shepherd. Whether it is VBS planning, our grief group, weekly men’s Bible studies, or students sent to work camp… I see the incredible hand of God among us. The Lord has been faithful across our groups, serving teams, and ministries.

“Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not humans.” Colossians 3:23
This verse is a familiar one, and it offers deep wisdom to us. When we grow weary, when we wonder if what we do matters, or if we are truly making a difference, we can be confident that God sees us. Sometimes, we can get caught up in the routine habits of life and forget that what we do, our work, and how we serve matters greatly. When we keep our heart and intentions rooted in Christ, we can be sure that what we do has true meaning and purpose.
As the family of God, we have the blessed opportunity to work for the Lord… together. This summer, our grief team is serving every week to walk with people in our community who are hurting as they grieve. We do not want anyone to grieve alone. God raised up this grief ministry almost six years ago, and it is an honor that the Lord has called us to walk with and care for those who grieve. I see our grief team serving with the intent that they are serving the Lord. With hearts in the right place, they are making a difference for God’s kingdom as they help people find hope in the Lord.
As God works through Good Shepherd, it is beautiful to see so many of our congregants leading, serving, learning, and partnering with God. My hope and prayer is that we stay rooted in Christ as willing vessels that He is accomplishing His goodness in the world through.
It is a joy to partner together and be on mission for God. Every person who calls Good Shepherd their home church is needed and valued. I am grateful for the ways I see so many of our congregants, faithful men and women, using your gifts, giving of your time, and seeking out ways to connect with God and one another.
May God continue to lead, anoint, and encourage us as we are working for Him!
Love and God bless,
Pastor Pamela
