My husband Greg and I moved to Fort Wayne 4 years ago. We became members of Good Shepherd about a year ago. After “church shopping” for a while it was the place that both of us felt most at home. Our decision to join this church proved to be a good one a couple of months ago. We had a little scare when our first child came 5 weeks early and had a 25 day stay in the NICU. Our fellow members of Good Shepherd were there for us every step of the way. People we had not even met yet at the church came to the hospital to pray with us. Our family was added to the prayer chain, and special gifts were sent. Greg and I do not have family here in Fort Wayne, but we were so blessed to have our family from Good Shepherd there to support us.
