Good Shepherd Building Fund

Members and friends of the ACW,

Thank you for your generous support of this ministry with your prayers and your giving.

For more than 22 years Good Shepherd has served as the mother church of the ACW, and you
have been blessed by her presence. You have seen visitors from 27 countries; grace her sanctuary
with 16 of them preaching God’s Word from her pulpit. Seven ACW synods have come and
gone over the last twenty years, and throughout this time Good Shepherd has retained her
majesty as the ACW Cathedral.

In early April a windstorm ripped through the area taking off much off Good Shepherd’s roof as
well as others, causing much water/carpet damage below in her sanctuary.

Her roof is now tarped as we await insurance determinations. Services continue however, a new
roof and renovations are badly needed.

You can help us to return our beloved Good Shepherd to all of its formal glory as we move
forward in the process of raising $35.000.00 for this project. This is why we need YOU now. We
know that because you have been blessed over the years by her you will help rescue this beloved
Church by your sacrificial giving. We also understand what miracles God is capable of doing
through the hands of his children. So give generously to Good Shepherd! Thank you!

Our drive begins now and runs until May 31. You can email us your pledge, then mail your
checks made payable to:
