Women's Bible Study: "Mary Mornings"
Bible study for women and led by women. This Bible study is held jointly with our sister congregations, Jordan and Woodlawn Lutheran Churches.
Details for current or upcoming Women's Bible Studies.
Advent by Candlelight
Advent by Candlelight is an opportunity for women of all ages to set aside the hustle and bustle of holiday preparation and focus their minds and hearts on the birth of Christ. Hostesses decorate a table with a Christmas theme using their own decorations and provide a dessert for their table. The ladies then enjoy music, devotions, and Scripture readings by candlelight. Women are encouraged to invite guests to share in this spiritually rich preparation for Christmas. Details from past and future events are available for viewing.
Women's Fellowship
Women's Fellowship meets for fellowship, caring, sharing, learning, and service. Monthly meetings are held at the Living Hope South (Woodlawn) campus. Special events are also held.
Lenten by Candlelight
Women join together for an afternoon of Bible readings, beautiful music, and delicious food. We’ll be looking at six symbols of Lent. Girls grade 7th and up and women of the congregations are invited and encouraged to invite their female family members, friends, and neighbors for a Christ-centered service to prepare our hearts for the Lenten season.
Lutheran Women's Missionary Society (LWMS)
“LWMS is women dedicated to serving Jesus by increasing awareness of, interest in, and support of the mission outreach of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS).”
As WELS women we believe that Jesus was speaking to each of us when he directed his disciples to "...go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:19
To this end we freely give of the time, talents, and treasures with which God has richly blessed us.
Good Shepherd's is one of the 900 LWMS member congregations, belonging to the Milwaukee Metro-South Circuit. We are pleased to report that many of our Good Shepherd's women have an active role in the service projects and fellowship opportunities of the LWMS. All Good Shepherd's women are invited to participate. Annual conventions are held in various locations across the country. Learn more about LWMS.
