The Church of the Good Shepherd has a very large Outreach Ministry.  Some of the many things we do are:

IHN- For two weeks each summer we house the transitional homeless through the Interfaith Hospitality Network.  With the help of up to 50 members of the congregation we are able to feed and shelter our guests.

Youth Mission Trips- In 2008 a group of youth and adults traveled to Appalachia to help rebuild homes for the elderly and the poor.

North Porch- We collect diapers, wipes and other baby items for North Porch, a baby protection agency.

Thanksgiving Baskets and Christmas Presents- every year we collect items for Thanksgiving and Christmas and give them to people who come to us for help.

Seaman's Institute- we collect hats, scarves, gloves and calendars for the Seaman's Institute.

We collect the fronts of Christmas cards for St. Jude's Ranch.  They use the card fronts to make their own cards to sell.

Prayer Shawl Ministry- Our knitters and crocheters gather monthly to make shawls for the elderly, the cold, and those who need a hug.

We sponsor Community Blood Drives to help the area hospitals.
