"Let us pray" are the words most visible to drivers as they race past the Good Shepherd Catholic Church entrance on Thomasville Road. These three words serve as a reminder that we are a people of prayer, first.Yes, we are the largest parish in the Catholic Diocese of Pensacola-Tallahassee, but more important, we are a representation of the Body of Christ, discerning Gods will in order to bring our lives into greater conformity with the Gospel of Jesus.A parish with humble beginnings preceding Interstate 10 and the population explosion of northeast Tallahassee Good Shepherd celebrated its 30th anniversary in January 2003.A now dynamic collection of more than 2, 500 families and a 15-acre campus, Good Shepherd is truly a "community of small communities, " centered in the Eucharist and committed to ministry.This vision emphasizes a prayerful focus on living the mission of Jesus through spiritual formation, evangelization and ministry carried out through small Christian communities.Nearly 75 different ministries are organized under five categories Leadership, Prayer and Liturgy, Fellowship and Evangelization, and Mercy and Justice.Good Shepherd is just as committed to youth and the Religious Education of both adults and children.Please spend some time exploring Good Shepherds online presence through this web site community and be sure to contact_us with your own news about parish.
