Youth Formation (Ages 1–17)

Reconstituting Good Shepherd’s Youth Education Program

Led by Ann Peel and Chris Johnston under the direction of the Vestry,
the Formation Committee is working to build an accurate census of all baptized individuals
ages 1–17. The goal is to support the renewal of Good Shepherd’s educational classes
for infants, youth, and young adults beginning Fall 2026.

📅

First Work Session: Tuesday, April 28th
The committee will review Good Shepherd’s baptismal records to begin establishing
a cradle roll and current census of children within the congregation.

Over the next three months, this process will actively involve parents,
grandparents, and godparents as the congregation works together to develop
a multifaceted educational outreach for children of all ages and stages at Good Shepherd.

Watch for updates and opportunities to participate as we grow this ministry together!
