For many years, the GSLC youth (current & alumni) have gathered on Good Friday to decorate eggs for Easter Sunday. The eggs are given to people as they leave worship as a reminder of new life in Christ.

We had a GREAT group of GSLC youth and friends get together on Friday, March 29. We decorated eggs, caught up with each other, and enjoyed some time running around outside on a beautiful day.

This tradition was started years ago by Elizabeth Kaschins and friends and it’s been a fun one to continue each Holy Week.

On July 14^th during fellowship hour, Chrisann Zuerner and Evan Neubauer, the Greening Churches interns from Luther College, will be discussing the various ways Good Shepherd has taken steps to become more energy efficient and reduce their impact upon the environment.

Come join the conversation of what Good Shepherd has done, and explore what you too can do at home to become more energy efficient and save money!

The first annual Middle Mash Backyard Bash was a huge success! 25+ middle schoolers from Decorah (and beyond!) and a number of adults gathered in the Good Shepherd “backyard” on Sunday evening to celebrate the start of summer.

The evening started with a fun time of singing and playing silly games with Luther graduate Karsten Snitker. The activities then shifted to a variety of games such as parachute games, beanbag toss, frisbee golf, and soccer.

During this time, kids and adults also enjoyed refreshments consisting of popcorn, apples, doughnuts, s’mores, and lemonade. It was good!

In closing, Karsten led the youth in a fun Middle Mash Backyard Bash rap!

It was a perfect evening.
