Missions

PRAY! Missionaries across the globe need our fervent prayers now more than ever. Many of them are quarantined and not able to provide fully to the people most in need. Some are providing online support to their students, their congregations and their staff, while others cannot provide online support due to the poverty in their region. Many of the missionaries highlight how the COVID pandemic has affected them. 



Shepherd of the Hills recognizes that our purpose is to share the Word of God and salvation through Christ to people throughout the world. This congregational focus has led to the recognition and support of missionaries throughout the world. Shepherd has developed relationships with and provides support to specific missionaries in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America.

Fleece Navidad: 

It’s that time of year again where we have the opportunity to show a group of people who are often forgotten that we care about them. Let’s wrap these residents of the Rowan Community in fleece that will warm them inside and out. 

Instructions: Pick a tag off the tree, then find the name on the list. Sign your name and phone # next to the name you picked. Purchase the size fleece suit, top and bottom, wrap, and attach the name tag. Return the gift to church by December 16. Questions? Call Deb Lallement 303-798-0249. Thank you again for being such a huge blessing for these people!
