Middle School

Middle School Ministry (Sundays, 9:55-10:55 am in the Gym)

Every Sunday morning, from September to May, 6th-8th grade students gather for an hour of fun and faith formation. A typical hour includes games, large group teaching, and time in small groups (4-7 students of the same grade and both a high school-age and adult co-leader). Friends and guests are always welcome. For students seeking their Rite of Confirmation, three years of participation in Middle School Ministry is the primary expectation. 

New students and students returning for the 2024-2025 year are encouraged to register for MSM here.

Scouts BSA (formerly Boy Scouts of America)

For over 25 years, Good Shepherd has been a Chartered Organization for Scouts BSA (Boy Scouts of America), with a mission to prepare young people to make ethical and moral choices over their lifetimes by instilling in them the values of the Scout Oath and Law. Boys and girls from Kindergarten through age 18 have the opportunity to participate in the trail to Eagle Scout in one of Good Shepherd’s Scouts BSA programs. Learn more here about the Pack and Troops, or from Scouts BSA main website; or if you have specific questions, please contact admin@gslchurch.org.

Girl Scouts

Good Shepherd has hosted multiple Girl Scout Troops over the years. Currently, there are three troops who meet at Good Shepherd: Cadettes (middle school), Seniors and Ambassadors (high school). The troops enjoy camping, hiking, engineering, ziplines and other adventures. The girls volunteer in various ways, including serving at the Memory Cafe, donating toothbrushes to Mnene Parish, and participating in Yam Jam and food drives. Learn more here.
