Greetings!
SUMMER SCHEDULE (Memorial Day Weekend through Labor Day Weekend)
Divine Service is Sundays at 10:00 AM.
Sunday School and Adult Bible Class will resume on Sunday, September 13.
CALENDAR: For a calendar of events and meetings, click here.
We will have our summer Open Forum after church on Sunday, June 21. The Voters’ meeting will follow to ratify any actions that need to be made.
Points of discussion:
· Review and vote on vacancy pastoral call
· Review of potential property opportunities and related considerations.
· Updates on the pastoral call process and our status.
· Discussion on protentional stewardship events and opportunities for congregational involvement.
PRE-CALL MEETING WITH THE MICHIGAN DISTRICT PRESIDENT
Rev. Snowden Sims will be coming to Good Shepherd to discuss what our members consider the strengths needed in the next pastor. Our input will help him determine who are the best eligible candidates for the call lists he will supply. All are invited to attend the pre-call meeting which will be Tuesday, June 16 at 7:00 PM.
Good Shepherd will be hosting a farewell open house on Sunday, June 7 from 12pm until 3pm. We are inviting area congregations as well. We will be getting a food truck but also need members to help with dessert. If every family could bring a minimum of one dessert on that day that would be great. We will have tables set up for desserts in the WEF. We also need help on Saturday (June 6) and Sunday after church to set up. Ask Mary Mitchell or Dan Rauchholz how you can help. Please RSVP to Carol by May 31 at goodshepherdnovimi@outlook.com so we can have an idea of how many people will be attending.
CHURCH COUNCIL HIGHLIGHTS (May)
> TODAY (June 4), Good Shepherd will host a table at Novi’s Community Day. Community Day will be held at the Novi Civic Center. Feel free to stop by between 4:00-8:00 PM and say “Hi” to us.
> Payment has been made on a Smart TV to replace our projector and screen in the fellowship hall. We are still waiting for its delivery. It will be installed shortly after that.
> We have had issues recording the service and uploading them on our YouTube channel. We will be looking at replacing some equipment and running new wiring to improve our recordings. When the new equipment is in place, we will begin to live-stream our services again.
> We are hoping to have the chairs in the sanctuary reupholstered. One estimate has been received at a cost of $450 per chair. We are attaining a few other estimates before we begin this project.
OFFICE HOURS
Pastor Schroeder will be quite limited in his office hours leading up to June 14. Call or text to confirm any meetings with the pastor (248-719-5218).

We desire as many as possible to rejoice in the Gospel which we proclaim and confess. Share the information from our weekly email blast, links to our web page, and even to the pastor's blog to let others know that we have a space in our congregation for them!
In Christ,
Pastor Schroeder
