Our Beliefs

Church of the Good Shepherd is rooted in the Great Tradition of the Church and receives the Christian Bible as its authoritative text. We understand the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds as accurate summaries of the Christian faith, and affirm the teaching of the first four Councils of the undivided Church. Our particular theological convictions are described in the 39 Articles of Religion and the Book of Common Prayer.
