Church of the Good Shepherd, Episcopal

About this church

Church of the Good Shepherd is an Episcopal congregation in downtown Rocky Mount, North Carolina, at 231 N. Church Street. Worship centers on the Holy Eucharist and follows the Book of Common Prayer. Sunday offers two services: an 8:00 a.m. Holy Eucharist that is spoken and contemplative, using traditional language, and a 10:30 a.m. Holy Eucharist in modern language with music. A midweek Eucharist is held on Wednesdays at noon, preceded by contemplative prayer at 11:30. Services are livestreamed, and the weekly bulletin is posted online.

Music is a major part of parish life, with a Cherub Choir for ages three through first grade, an Alleluia Choir for second through eighth grade, and an adult choir that sings weekly at the 10:30 service and at seasonal services such as Evensong and Lessons and Carols. A concert series is open to the wider community. Children's Church, acolyte service, and other activities involve children and youth. Adults can serve through the Altar Guild, the Flower Guild, or the Outreach Committee. The church also operates Good Shepherd Day School, which provides childcare, preschool, and Pre-K for children from six weeks through five years old.
