Heart Of Mary

The Heart of Mary is a newly formed group at Good shepherd. Active members meet bi-monthly and travel throughout the parish in pairs to perform various corporal works of mercy and conduct home visits. They also prepare gifts for newly baptized children — Miraculous Medal, Rosary, and book. Men and women are welcome to join.
