Of all our parish resources, the most
precious is our people. The congregation of Good Shepherd is diverse,
consisting of a dozen different nationalities and races, with persons
of every marital status and sexual preference worshiping together in
loving harmony. While many members live close to the church, others
travel from different parts of Manhattan as well as from other
boroughs. All visitors who have been admitted to Communion in their own
churches are welcome to share in the Holy Communion.
Friends of the parish are scattered all over the world, as
members have relocated and retired. Homecoming Sunday in September
finds many of these old friends returning to a joyous celebration year
after year.
Members of the parish volunteer
to serve as ushers, readers, servers, altar guild and coffee-hour
hosts. In addition to our new Rector, there is a part-time
salaried staff including an organist-choirmaster, parish administrator
and sexton.
