When we serve others in our community, we grow more like Jesus and practice the Shepherd value of Others First.

Serving the community means joining in our mission to love God and our neighbors by showing care to those outside of Shepherd’s walls. It means coming alongside people and organizations already making a difference in our own communities and beyond to support them in their goal of serving people who are hurting, under-resourced, or in need of support.
