CHURCH OF THE GOOD SHEPHERD
Smithfield, VA 23430
August 2, 1990
In
thankfulness to God, we, the Parish of the Good Shepherd, pray and work
at continued growth in our Catholic Christian tradition through shared
worship: passing on our faith to our children: and conducting ourselves
in keeping with the values of the Catholic Church.
We commit
ourselves to follow the Lord, our Good Shepherd, to listen to Him and
heed His call, to change, and to sacrifice in order that we may share
His life more abundantly.
To all we open our hearts, our arms, and our
gates in genuine hospitality.
