The Sunday School Program has completed it’s final mission project of the school year, a micro food pantry. This food pantry is available to all who are in need regardless of income and is located by the parking lot entrance doors of the church at 5 west washington in downtown Oswego.

To date, The Living Water Walkers at Good Shepherd have raised $3,150 to provide ongoing access to clean water for over 60 people!! We had 41 walkers/runners and at least 9 volunteers. 

Thankyou for putting love in action through compassion by moving your feet and supporting our first World Vision Global 6k in Oswego.
