Prints for the Good Shepherd Center


St. Peter's Church by the Sea
by Heike McDoniel 
My friend, Heike McDoniel, painted this and asked me to offer it to help the needy.  You can have this print for a $25 gift card donation to the Good Shepherd Center - Here is their facebook post today:

Good Shepherd has 20 recently rehoused families that are still struggling to make ends meet. We are trying to ensure these families have a happy Thanksgiving - turkey and all!

One $25 gift card will allow us to provide a Thanksgiving meal to a recently housed family. Can you help?
