Wednesdays beginning February 17.
We will be serving soup and sandwiches from 5:30-7 pm. You can stop in for your meal at any time. There is no charge (optional donations will be accepted the day of the event). During this time, we will also be working on a variety of service projects to help those in need - including tying fleece blankets for the homeless and children in foster care, drawing pictures and writing letters of encouragement to shut-ins, and tying paracord bracelets for Operation Gratitude.
ALL AGES are welcome - no experience necessary! If you have older children who need SERVICE HOURS for their school, this is a great opportunity for them!

School Family Referrals
|
As you may have heard, Pinecrest Schools will be closing all five of their campuses at the end of this school year. Do you know any families that attend Pinecrest Schools?
At Shepherd, we know that the best way to spread the word about our school is through the recommendations of our parents to family, friends, and neighbors. Please share your SOV experience with others, especially any Pinecrest families that could benefit from being part of the Shepherd family.
Shepherd is pleased to accept referrals at any time. With our open enrollment policy, students can be admitted throughout the school year.
If you know of any families looking for options for their children, please let us know. Thank you in advance. |
