Walking together in Christ, we grow in faith and love to share Christ with the world. 
 
Love grows here, like a well tilled and tended garden that blooms with abundant diversity of all kinds. The Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd is rooted in Jesus’ ministry of reconciliation, love, and affirmation. Following Christ, we promise to provide a loving welcome to all, regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, race, age, nationality, ethnicity, marital status, family configuration, political affiliation, and economic circumstance. We especially encourage LGBTQIA+ people to make Good Shepherd their spiritual home. 
 
All people are beloved by God, made in God’s image, and worthy of God’s love and grace. Thus, we commit to the work of opposing racism and promoting racial equality, and to resist bias of all kinds. 
 
Here, Christ will tend to your faith journey. 
Here, love and respect for all abounds. 
Here, the garden is open to all. 
 
Come and walk together with Christ to grow in faith and love to share Christ with the world. 
Like a well tilled and tended garden, love grows here!
