GIVING TO GOOD SHEPHERD

At Good Shepherd, we believe that financial generosity is more than a duty—it is a spiritual practice that transforms both giver and community.

Financial Stewardship

Parishioners are encouraged to make an annual stewardship pledge. A pledge is a personal financial commitment as an expression of faith and gratitude for God’s generosity. Each year, members are invited to make this pledge — a specific promise to “work, pray, and give for the spread of the kingdom of God” (Book of Common Prayer, page 856). A pledge is not a contract — it is a statement of intent and commitment.

Build the Beloved Community

Our Build the Beloved Community major gifts campaign is investing in the future of Good Shepherd. Through this campaign, we will complete funding for our parish facilities, finish the Windsor organ as it was originally designed, and establish a facilities reserve fund to care for our buildings for generations to come.
