Welcome to the Church of the Good Shepherd!

We have been praying and talking about how we are called as a parish to serve those who are in transition between jobs, underemployed, or preparing for retirement. If you have resources to share or ideas for us, please contact Pastor Amy.

Events at CGS

 

The Holy Season of Lent begins on Wednesday, February 22nd.  Join us as we prepare for Easter joy through worship, formation, and reflection. Our theme this year is "modern wilderness," and we will be exploring the sense of overwhelm, disorder, and anxiety we all carry in various ways as we travel through these challenging times.

      Ash Wednesday, February 22nd -- 7 pm, Solemn Liturgy with imposition of ashes.
     
      Preaching Series in Lent: "Modern Wilderness"-- Sundays at 10 am worship:

Children's Formation @ CGS:  Elementary-aged children meet in the upper parish hall for a time of teaching, prayer, and reflection at 10 am on Sundays. They join with our worship service around 10:35 am -- in time to participate in Communion. Our formation program will build on the parish's strong commitments to community gardening, food justice, and contemplative prayer. If you are a parent or caregiver and would like to know more, please contact Pastor Amy.


The Watertown Community Gardening Network continues to move forward! Learn more and stay in the loop by checking out their facebook page. CGS is growing food for local people in need. Contact Juliana Duff if you would like to garden with us!
