Driven Toward The Road Ahead

Good Shepherd is a driven church. Our passionate desire is to reach and transform spiritually distracted families in our local community so they come to know and love God.

Our church family is on an adventure toward seeing this vision become a reality. As we journey down “The Road Ahead,” we see an exciting future … a future where more and more families in our community explore what it means to be “driven” toward the life of true satisfaction that only Christ can provide.

DrivenChurch.org is a place where we continue the conversation beyond weekend worship services. We encourage you to take time to explore the site and participate in the dialogue.

Facility Update: Design work complete, financing options still under review

As a follow up to the direction the Congregation approved at our Annual Meeting on May 3, 2009, here is an update on what has been happening with the new addition to our ministry facility.

Final details on design are complete with our design-build team at Aspen. Our Dream Team (building team) has saved an additional $400,000 on the project! In the meantime, the Church Council continues its work to determine and secure the best possible financing for the project.

The options for financing include:

Working with a bank for financing; or
Making available a bond offering that would supply the needed financial support.

Be assured that our Church Council is working diligently to find the most cost effective financial solution for our future construction. We firmly believe that God is guiding our church to a construction start date.

Get a closer look at the Phase I and II recommendations.

What you can do to support the process:

Please continue to keep the future of our church in prayer before God.
Please continue to make your financial gifts to the Building Fund as each dollar given strengthens our church’s financial future.
If you’d like to make a pledge to the Building Fund, call or email Sue Mitchell in the church office.
