Stewardship Reflection

In 2006 Barb Magee joined Good Shepherd’s delegation to El Salvador.  It was her first personal experience with the impoverishment and reality of life in a third world country. She channeled that experience into broadening Good Shepherd’s assistance and outreach efforts.  Today our church offers many opportunities for individuals, families or groups to do something tangible and helpful for our neighbors -  whether here in Acton, or for our far-flung neighbors around the world.

Rev. Eleanor Terry

Rev. Ellie suggests, “It is a human thing, love; a holy thing, to love what death has touched.”  We all know that death is part of every life. But with Jesus’ death and resurrection we also know that in death life is changed, not ended.

Rev. Ken Schmidt

Deacon Ken asks, “What does Jesus command us do?”  Jesus’ second Great Commandment instructs us to love God, and to “love your neighbor as yourself.” Do we truly love and accept ourselves with all our faults and imperfections?

Rev. Eleanor Terry

The Episcopal church calls us to follow Jesus through prayer, worship, proclamation of the Gospel, and by promoting justice, peace, and love. Rev. Ellie notes that prayer comes first in that list. What exactly is prayer? Why is it foundational to being a Christian?
