We believe very strongly in offering opportunities to the students to learn more about God and to praise Him in worship.
We have chapel every Thursday from 8:20-8:55 a.m.
Parents are always welcome!
Baptismal Birthdays are celebrated during the first chapel service each month.
Chapel offerings go to different mission projects to further God’s kingdom.
Students use their talents to glorify God by playing for pre-service and post-service music. Selected choirs also sing during Chapel services.
If you have questions regarding our Chapel service, please contact Pastor Walther at michaelpwalther@gmail.com
Spiritual Nurture
Daily Devotions, Bible Readings, and Prayers
God’s Word is highly valued at Good Shepherd. Each school day begins with school-wide, student-led prayer and the reciting of the pledges of allegiance to the American Flag and the Christian flag over the intercom. Classrooms gather at the beginning of the day for devotions, Bible readings, and prayer. Prayers are said at meal times, as the need and opportunity arise during the day, and at the close of the school day.
