Do You Have the Heart of a Shepherd?
Sisters of the Good
Shepherd, dream of a world where all God's people are reverenced
and valued as children of God. We strive to follow in the
footsteps of Jesus the Good Shepherd, who sought out the lost,
healed the suffering, brought liberty to captives and proclaimed
the Good News to the poor. Come live with us for a week
and connect with other women looking into the vowed life as well
as those living the vowed life. If you feel that God may
be calling you to love with the heart of a shepherd, we invite
you to come and learn more about us. |
