It’s another amazing weekend at Good Shepherd! Come and join us!
Oktoberfest is tomorrow, Saturday, 9/26!
The evening begins with Evening Prayer at 5:30, followed immediately by Oktoberfest at 6. We will roast a whole pig, have brats and sausages, beer and lots of scrumptious German sides. And while we are feasting, we will take the opportunity to remember those in our community who are less fortunate. Everyone is asked to bring a bag of food to Oktoberfest to benefit the food pantry at the Community Center of Northern Westchester. There were 100 reusable bags in the narthex – if each one is filled with 10 lbs., we will have collected 1,000 lbs. in one day! Please join us in this important effort. All donations are welcome, even without the reusable bags!
On Sunday, we welcome back The Rev. Canon Deborah G. Tammearu as our Celebrant and Preacher! Canon Tammearu is the Canon for Transitional Ministry in the Diocese of NY. She is with us to commission our Search Committee, and will be present at our Parish Family Meeting after the 10AM service.
8:00am – Morning Prayer Rite I
8:50am – Bible Reflection in the Guild Room
10:00am – Said Eucharist Rite II with Hymns & Commissioning of the Search
11:00am – All-Parish Family Meeting hosted by the Search Committee
12:30pm(ish) – Canon Tammearu meets with the Search Committee
Please be with us as we officially begin the ministry of the Search Committee. Bring your questions and enjoy a festive coffee hour.
Looking ahead:
