Members of the Good Shepherd congregation wish everyone a most Happy New Year.  We will begin the new year on Sunday, January 3rd, with the Sunday worship service presided over by Pr. Richard Simon Hanson.

On Wednesday, January 6th, the day of Epiphany, we celebrate the Magi visiting Jesus at a service at 5:30 pm. The Epiphany season begins on January 6th and will last until Ash Wednesday, February 10th. There will be a potluck following the service; there will be no Wednesday evening services during the rest of January.

To prepare for the Christmas Eve Candlelight Service, Good Shepherd children created luminaries to line the sidewalks leading into the church. They filled the luminaries with sand before adding votive candles into the base of the luminary.

Candles to be used during the service were placed inside holders and arranged in baskets for distribution.
