Over the next few months the Good Shepherd Discernment Committee will begin a process to engage our members in planning our vision for the direction God is calling us in our ministry in Barre.
Here are some of the documents we are using and creating during this process. Please contact committee members with any questions, concerns, or suggestions. The committee members are Philip Moros, Linda Webster, Marjorie Strong, Cindy Cobb, Amy Eschelbach, and Felicia Martineau.
