    Cross of Mercy 
    ​Pray for One Another

    Visit our Lenten Cross of Mercy in the Commons to leave a prayer request or take a prayer request home.  Our community will grow in faith as we pray for our brothers and sisters in need and give thanks for our many blessings.

    Stations of the Cross

    Fridays, 6pm, starting February 19
    Each week on Fridays at 6pm we will pray in the Church and feature a different reflection. Join us in person for our new outdoor stations and walk around while you pray (did you know that 4 laps around the parking lot equals a mile?). We will also have outdoor stations set up in the field for private prayer. A recording of stations at Good Shepherd and the written prayers will be available for download on our app!
