Greeters

Our Sunday Mass Greeter Ministry is always looking for some new volunteers! Greeters welcome people as they enter our church for Sunday (and Saturday evening) Mass. Greeters, along with Ushers, work to foster a sense of community here at Good Shepherd by making everyone feel at home.

Greeters arrive 15 minutes before Mass begins to simply say “Welcome, we’re glad you’re here!”

To join this welcoming crew, please contact Sister Donna Marie, , sdmkemberling@thegoodshep.org., 717-980-3610.

Greeters must be 18 years of age or older.

Kids Mass

On the third Sunday of each month, at the 9:30a.m. Mass, we celebrate the gifts of our young people.

All are welcome! While this is a Mass for everyone, our young people will act as altar servers, proclaim the readings, lead the singing, offer the intercessions, and assist with the technology. The homily will be appropriate for young people. Please contact Director of Religious Education, Helen Kantes, hkantes@thegoodshep.org, with any questions.
