No matter who you are, how you are spiritually, or where you are on life’s journey, we welcome and embrace you in the name and love of Christ. Good Shepherd is located on Route 15, in Jericho, Vermont. Your journey here will be blessed with the beauty of the Green Mountains. Your time with us will be blessed with a warm welcome, inspiration and outstanding music.

Worship Service at 9am

This St. Francis of Assisi Day (October 4), we will be celebrating a special liturgy in worship called the Feast of Creation in Christ. In 2024, representatives of the Roman Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church, and the World Council of Churches created this new liturgy to highlight the theological urgency of environmental protection during the “season of creation” in the fall.

The appointed Scripture, from Genesis 2, will speak to our contemporary sense of urgency, with the realism and ambivalence woven into the story of Creation. This includes avarice for the mineral wealth of other lands, the call to the human to “serve and protect” the garden, the introduction of healthy ecological limits that can be transgressed, and the vulnerable partnership between humans, animals, and the Creator. Both the profound goodness of Creation and the violation of fragile beginnings call for our reverent attention today.
