Join us for Souper Bowl of Caring on
February 5th, 2012
More than 20 years ago, the Souper Bowl of Caring began with a simple prayer from a single youth group:
"Lord, as we enjoy the Super Bowl football game, help us to be mindful of those without even a bowl of soup to eat."
Since that day, more than $81 million has been raised for local charities across the country through Souper Bowl of Caring. It has become a powerful movement that is transforming the time around Super Bowl weekend into the nation's largest celebration of giving and serving.
Through this mission, young people learn what it's like to make a positive difference in the world - as they collect food, raise money and volunteer to work in charities that provide shelter to the homeless, food to the hungry and compassion to those in in need.
Be part of this movement that is sharing God's love with those in need. Please give generously on January 29th, 2012. Every dollar donated goes to Community of Faith United, our 2012 Souper Bowl of Caring charity of choice. We will be accepting food donations now through February 5th, 2012. Please drop off in the COFU bin in the narthex.

Stephen Ministry Leadership Training
Stephen Ministry equips lay people to care, for those going through difficult times in life, such as a death in the family, job loss, health challenges and other life stresses. Many lives have been touched by this ministry, but you don't hear much about it because all care is given with the promise of confidentiality.
Stephen Ministry at Good Shepherd has trained two classes of Stephen Ministers and they are now serving members of our church and our community. Please give your prayer support to this important ministry.
PACIFIC EMERGENCY: Please give generously to the Pacific Emergency through UMCOR. If you wish to donate, please make checks payable to GSUMC and write UMCOR Advance #3021317 in the memo line of your check. All funds will be given through UMCOR - United Methodist Commitee on Relief.
