Dear Members and Friends of Good Shepherd,
It is with great joy that I announce we have resumed worship! Praise Worship will be at 9:00 and our Traditional Worship will be at 10:30. PLEASE WEAR YOUR MASK! MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING! PLEASE, NO HUGGING!!!! We know you haven’t seen each other in a while - but let’s be safe – air kisses and hugs only! Oh - and no shaking hands either! You will have your temperature taking prior to entering. Upon entering, you will pick up your communion cup, bulletin and use hand sanitizer. You will enter the church through the double doors. The door next to the choir area is for exit only.
We will continue to provide a Worship Devotional for those that aren't ready to return to in-person worship. It will be posted online the Friday before each Sunday.
Click on the "Find Out More" button to download the Worship Devotional for the Reformation Sunday, October 25.
Included are files for children’s bulletin’s that you can print up if you have kids or know some that would like them and music from Ron Delarm.

There will be a drive through food distribution of the Lutheran Hunger Network's FREE Neighborhood Market at TBA on Saturday, 11/7, from 9-11 a.m.
We are asking all of those in the high risk categories to please refrain from volunteering this time around.
Central CA Food Bank will provide gloves, and you must use your own masks. On 11/7, anyone planning to volunteer who is or has been feeling ill - especially if they have or have had a fever, cough or flu-like symptoms - is asked to PLEASE stay home.
Please share this information with everyone you know who could benefit and with those who might want to volunteer.

Pastor's Note
A Word From Pastor Ted Niemi
Dear Members and Friends of Good Shepherd,
Don’t Forget – Church is Starting Back on Sunday!
Praise and Celebration will be at 9:00 and Traditional will be at 10:30 - just like usual. Here are just some of the differences:
· Entry will be only through the main sanctuary doors.
· PLEASE WEAR YOUR MASK!
· MAINTAIN SOCIAL DISTANCING!
· PLEASE, NO HUGGING!!!! We know you haven’t seen each other in a while - but let’s be safe – air kisses and hugs only! Oh - and no shaking hands either!
· You will have your temperature taking prior to entering.
· Upon entering, you will pick up your communion cup, bulletin and use hand sanitizer. You will enter the church through the double doors. The door next to the choir area is for exit only.
· The sanctuary and bathrooms have been disinfected before each service.
· Seating has been set up alternating sides of the pew.
· The service will be abbreviated for both services. The hymns will be sung by soloists. The hymnals and Bibles have been removed. There will still be PowerPoint.
· When you exit you will exit through the single door by the choir section and go down the hall and exit out the door by Jacobson Hall. There will be no fellowship following. When catching up with your friends maintain social distancing.
· Jacobson Hall & the Community center are closed.
I would like to particularly thank the Sullivans, Gloria Miller and Kathy for their making our opening up possible!
It will be wonderful to worship with you again!
God’s Peace,
Pastor Ted Niemi
