    International Festival 2020

    Picture
     Our 45th Annual International Festival looked different this year, as we made adjustments due to Covid-19. Thank you to everyone who supported the 2020 Festival. Together, through generous donations, our online raffle, and a virtual 5K, we raised funds to support the Shepherd's Gate Grant program! 
    ​
    Have questions? Contact us at festival@gs-cc.org
    Net proceeds from the Festival go to charity (Shepherd's Gate Grants)! 

    New for 2020: Our First-Ever Online Raffle! 

    Thank you! Total Raised: $17,000!​

    ​Thanks for your generosity and participation in the GS International Festival Raffle! Proceeds support community-based organizations. Congratulations to the two winners:  Gale C. and Keri G.

    It's a Virtual Festival!

    Good Shepherd staff want everyone to 'pass it on' and spread the word about this year's Festival!
    The 2020 International Festival video is temporary disabled. Thank you for your patience!

    Take a stroll down memory lane with scenes from prior years (including some shots from the early days of the 1970s!).

    International Festival Music
    Many thank to the Mount Vernon German Band for sharing music with us for our virtual Festival 2020! Enjoy their fun music and these pictures from the 2019 Festival.
    And thanks to local Christian band, The Restless, for sharing this beautiful version of "The Revolution is Love" - an uplifting and appropriate song to accompany the International Festival. We look forward to the day we can have you back to perform at Good Shepherd!
