A MESSAGE FROM GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH

Dear Members of Good Shepherd Church,

I'm hoping that you had a most joyous holiday and that you were with family and friends to celebrate the birth of Jesus. 

I would like to remind you that our Annual Congregational Meeting is this Sunday, the 28th after our 9am worship service.  We are asking you to bring 'snacks' to share.

As you have hopefully looked through our packets, we have many decisions to make.  This will not be a short meeting, but it is very important that all of us attend to make decisions about our church.  We have included the budget as submitted by the Budget Committee and Council decided not to present a 'suggested' balanced budget, but rather have the congregation work on this as a whole so we all have some input and say in what happens in our future.

We have so many gifts, we have such a great spirit in church as well as the Reignite meetings and we hope to do so much for our Community.  Please join us Sunday as part of the Good Shepherd family.  Your thoughts, ideas and suggestions are truly wanted and needed.  This is your church, not Council's and not Pastor's.  We all need to be there.  Please pray about what you want the Church to be in the coming years, and share that with all of us on Sunday.

I look forward to very positive, decisive and hopeful discussions as we move forward with Good Shepherd Church of Romeoville.

Love and Peace to you, my church family,

Carrie Worthington
