Historical NoteReturn to Top
This congregation began as a mission outreach of Rev. Felix Janssen, pastor of St. Paul’s Lutheran in Grants Pass, Oregon, a Missouri Synod congregation. He began conducting worship in the early 1960s at St. Matthias Episcopal Church. In May of 1976 Rev. Nicholas Doversberger, a graduate of Christ Seminary-Seminex, became pastor of the congregation. In 1978 the church moved to Immanuel United Methodist and continues to worship in that building. In 1979, Good Shepherd was incorporated and became a member of the AELC.
