Outreach Committee Update


We are excited to let you know that we are working with St. Andrews and Ripe for Revival to bring their Mobile Market to the Good Shepherd parking lot. They will be bringing the market for the first time on Thursday, November 16th from 4-5:30 p.m. All are invited to come to shop on the bus and see the work Ripe for Revival is doing!


The Mobile Market provides an opportunity for community members to buy fresh produce at a low cost, and we will offer market gift certificates and Thanksgiving turkeys to our neighbors as a new way to share Christ’s bountiful love.


If you are able to support the Outreach Committee by sponsoring turkeys and/or Mobile Market gift certificates for neighbors in need, please reach out to Isabella at ikwagley@gmail.com by Monday, November 12.

Please also get in touch with Isabella if you have questions or are interested in volunteering at the event - there are things for adults and youth to do!
