Above & Beyond (A&B)

Good Shepherd’s “Above and Beyond” giving program started in 2017 to enhance and grow our ministry programs further than our general budget could accommodate. We thank God for everyone who has generously responded to the projects within the program year in and year out. Without your participation none of this would be possible.

Gifts to the sustained Above and Beyond program are just one way for us to acknowledge our willingness to hear God’s call to do even more than we can imagine and trust in Him to provide. An updated description of immediate and long-term Above and Beyond opportunities is presented in this booklet. This fall issuance includes additional items and updated totals reflecting the remaining funds needed or if an item has been fully funded.

These gifts may be given in celebration of a life milestone; in honor or memory of a person; to advance an area of ministry that has touched your life; or just to respond to an area of need identified by Good Shepherd’s ministry teams. Your generosity not only supports local needs but has reached people around the world.

The support you have provided has enabled us to continue to spread the Word of God around the world. God’s blessings to you all.
