A Note of Welcome from the Senior Pastor
Thanks so much for taking the time to visit ‘Good Shepherd’ online. Our website will give you a cursory appreciation of where we are, who we are and what we do, but I do hope that you will soon be visiting us in person. Please consider this to be your personal invitation! J
As you know every church is a living organism through which Jesus Christ wants to reveal Himself; His love for a world alienated by sin, His hope for a world lost in darkness and His faith in a people that respond to His Word. At Good Shepherd we’re not perfect but simply a work in progress. In fact I often see us as a building site.

You may wonder, ‘What is special about Good Shepherd?’ The same thing that is special about every great church in this city, Jesus Christ! We have no monopoly on Him, He’s no respecter of persons and will show up wherever He’s wanted. All I know is that we want Him A LOT! That’s probably because we need Him the most, as I said, we’re a building site, and we’re under construction by the Holy Spirit.
It is my passion to work towards raising a part of the Bride that will thrill the heart of Jesus. We have A LOT of work to do, but if you enjoy seeking God and working towards seeing His work in you completed then you may enjoy working alongside the Saints at Good Shepherd. We’re a work in progress in order to ‘Win for the Lamb’ the rewards of His suffering. I pray that wherever you are on your journey of faith the Lord Himself may direct you to the safe haven He has prepared for you.
Grace and peace to you in Jesus Christ,
Andreas Lewis
