55+ Community

The 55+ Community at Good Shepherd fosters a community for older adults to be engaged, equipped, and valued through service, fellowship, and learning.

Welcoming Everyone 55+

Good Shepherd is made up of a community of believers that find meaning in their lives through fellowship, support, and serving their neighbors. Our 55+ community gathers together through life groups, events, and serving together. We transform our own lives and help make an impact around the world through  the caring relationships that make up our ministry. All are welcome!
