"Living In Faith" Small Groups
Are you ready for a new way to worship, pray, and experience loving community? We invite you to join us for reverent, relevant, and real gatherings based on where you feel God is calling YOU. Each group is 12 people or less and meets in person with Covid safety protocols or via Zoom or both. Groups are free of charge. Weekly sessions will include shared prayer, study, and shared actions for how we can live into our faith and engage with the community around us. Each group has a trained facilitator and uses vetted resources and curriculum materials that support thoughtful and eye-opening ways to bring scripture into our hearts and our lives. Groups are forming now and will begin meeting in August and September.
- Group members must be 18+.
- Please commit to attending regularly as we build relationships as well as knowledge.
- All essential materials will be provided. Optional materials may be recommended at a nominal cost.

Creation Care Small Group (A Ministry of the Good Shepherd Creation Care Team)
Good Shepherd’s Creation Care Team and Creation Care Small Group are grounded by a biblical vision of God’s intention for the healing and wholeness of Creation. Our mission is to support the ELCA’s Caring for Creation: Vision, Hope, and Justice social statement. Creation Care encompasses six primary areas; discipleship, education, worship, community, advocacy and property.
Creation Care Small Group discussion around a book or other related theme is now a part of the agenda for every Creation Care Team meeting. The team meets every other Sunday morning @ 8:30 am in the Shepherd's Crook Cafe. We would love to have you join us.
