Christmas Coming to Good Shepherd

 

searchSigns of the Christmas season will begin to appear in the Sanctuary throughout Advent.  In addition to our Advent Wreath, poinsettia plants gradually will be added to the altar area beginning on the Second Sunday, December 6, with a full display in place for our Christmas Eve and Day services.  Contributions may be made in honor or memory of relatives and friends and delivered to the Narthex table for placement by Altar Guild representatives throughout the month.
