Loaves & Fishes
Each week, Loaves & Fishes provides food and essential support to over 10,000 individuals in our community. Serve with Good Shepherd every other month on Wednesday afternoons!
Hesed House
We believe no one should face homelessness alone. In partnership, we serve meals and restore dignity and hope, one person, one family at a time. All are welcome to serve with Good Shepherd every other month on Wednesday evenings or Thursday mornings.
DuPage Care Center
Bring the church to those who can't come to church! Together, we can bring worship to our senior neighbors who can no longer attend church on their own. Serve one Sunday a month with Good Shepherd!
Serve at Last Fling
Our friends at the Naperville Jaycees are the driving force beyond Naperville's annual Last Fling. We're inviting everyone who calls Good Shepherd home to serve during the festival, wherever and whenever makes the most sense to them!
