WORSHIP
Thank you for joining us for worship!
We are missing you in the building, but know that WE are the church and we are praying for you!
Please sign up for our e-mails below. We are also on Facebook! Currently our office is closed but if you need to contact us, we will be checking our messages and e-mails regularly.
Here we are friends.
We will not be gathering to worship in the same place - our church building, we hope to provide a worship experience online.
We will be learning as we go, how to reach out digitally to as many people as possible.
We are following the CDC and the State of MN Guidlines for use of gathering space. Please stay home and take care of yourself and your loved ones.

How do we make it through times like these? Through leadership and the generosity of others!
Thrivent is offering both:
Make a gift to LCGS though the Thrivent website and they will match $1 for every $2 given!
Over the years Thrivent Financial has been a great partner to the mission and ministry of Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd through programs like Thrivent Choice Dollars and Thrivent Action Teams. In response to the current worldwide situation Thrivent has again stepped up to help uplift our important ministry with an offer to match gifts given through their website. The offer is for a 2 to 1 match; this has the potential to magnify your gift by 50%.
One of the best parts of this offer is that you DO NOT have to be a Thrivent Member to participate!
The matching opportunity will go until the $500,000 match is met or June 30, whichever comes first.
Thrivent will pay the online processing fees for personal donations made through InFaith Community Foundation up to $100,000 per calendar year.
While we cannot gather together, we can join in Holden Evening Prayer, written by Marty Haugen while
artist in residence at Holden Village in Washington State.
Below is The Holden Village Winter community gathring for Holden Evening Prayer.
