Congratulations, Good Shepherd!
Father Tom is pleased to announce that Good Shepherd Parish has received the 2016 Archbishop Thomas J. Murphy Award for Stewardship from the International Catholic Stewardship Council. The ICSC recognizes a parish each year for its "outstanding work in Christian stewardship formation." It is an honor to be recognized for this award, and it is a tribute to the prayerful generosity and gratitude of Good Shepherd parishioners - thank you, and congratulations! ______________________________________ Forming our Consciences Please see this week’s Arlington Catholic Herald for the first of six columns by Bishop Loverde on Forming our Consciences as we prepare to participate in the 2016 Presidential Election.READ MORE ______________________________________ Countdown to the International Festival!
