About

The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd

I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I knowthe Father. And I lay down my life for the sheep. I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.

(John 10:14-16)

The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd is called to mission for the purpose of serving Austin, Texas and is committed to extending itself for the sake of others. Moving beyond our comfort zone, we as a parish seek to live out God’s Word and to share an intimate piece of ourselves with the rest of this city.

Through this personal extension, Good Shepherd Loves More, Better.
