Back in the spring, we told you Serve Weekend was coming and that our goal was 50 beds for kids in the Northland who didn’t have one. We didn’t just hit that goal. We blew past it. On August 23, 174 volunteers across Good Shepherd’s North Oak and Gladstone campuses gave up part of their […]

Because you care about your neighbors, because you want to see Kansas City thrive, and because you believe that faith is more than words- it’s action. Whether you packed backpacks, stocked shelves at […]
