    SNOW UPDATE
    We are grateful to our snow-removal team for their hard work clearing our parking lots and sidewalks. Please use caution as the piles of snow mean there is reduced visibility in the lot, as well as a reduction in parking spaces. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we modified schedules this week due to the weather! Stay tuned to our website, mobile App, Facebook and Twitter to stay up-to-date on cancellations. (To see pictures of GS in the snow, CLICK HERE.)

    ACTIVITIES CANCELLED THURSDAY (Jan 28) AND FRIDAY (Jan 29)
    Activities (classes, meetings, programs) are canceled today (Thursday) and tomorrow (Friday). Weekend activities (Saturday and Sunday) are NOT canceled! 
    • Mass at Good Shepherd (plus Confession and Adoration) is not canceled. Parishioners are encouraged to use their best judgement when deciding whether to attend.
    • The parish office follows the Federal Government status. Note: Our regular office hours are M-Th: 9am-8pm; Fr: 9am-5pm; and Sun: 8am-4pm (closed Sat). When the Federal Govt is open we maintain our regular hours.
