ARE YOU READY TO WORSHIP?


CASUAL WORSHIP AT GOOD SHEPHERD CHURCH OF THE BRETHREN FOR YOU AND YOURS.

COME AS YOU ARE! Phone 443.235.1136

With singing, prayer, greeting one another and openness to the Scriptures... we sincerely seek the Lord! 

Christian Worship takes on new expressions as we reach out to God through the Holy Spirit's presence among us, through Jesus Christ the Lord! Seeking God's joy, grace and glory in Jesus, we worship together Sundays at 10:30 a.m. Pastoral servant-leaders Stephen and Cindy Reyner welcome you to join with us! Fun classes for all meet before Worship at 9:15 a.m.  We are most thankful to be a part of the Church of the Brethren, a reformation era group of hard-working sincere believers formed in Germany before settling and homesteading across the USA. We have six Brethren colleges now across the country, one graduate school, assist in disaster relief, send volunteers to fight poverty and its woes via the BRETHREN VOLUNTEER SERVICE, and lobby for peace in the halls of Washington, D.C. The Church of the Brethren has always endeavored to live out real new testament faith in the world. We still do.

Find your better you! Scientific studies show that spiritual worship weekly makes one healthier on every level. The release of inner tensions and stress is real as we entrust our cares and burdens to the Lord in prayer.

1 Chronicles 16:23  Sing to the Lord, all the earth; proclaim his salvation day after day.

Psalm 13:6   I will sing to the Lord, Because He has dealt bountifully with me.

Enjoying hymns as well as contemporary praise choruses, we bring ancient Davidic -style worship to the modern day.

Bradenton and Sarasota, FL are the lovely settings for our community life, worship and service. 

The Church is convenient to both cities, on Saunders Road just west of 301 Blvd. at

6323 13th Street Court East  Bradenton, FL 34203

The Church not only assists needs locally and around the US, 

but sends monies each year to help the poorest of the poor

in Liberia, AFRICA and in the Dominican Republic, CENTRAL AMERICA. 

God be praised.

Pastor Stephen works to bring a fresh word from the Scriptures each week, to address our challenges, concerns, needs & hopes.

He has ministered the Word in colleges, universities, coffeehouses, missions, camps, on canoe & ski trips, on the radio and in Churches galore around the country, as well as in San Jose, Costa Rica and Capernaum, Israel. Speaking nearly 2000 times since 1980, he has studied preaching on the undergraduate, seminary and doctoral levels with the finest teachers in the field. Yet his focus is always to "Bring a word from the Lord to this group of people, at this time, in this place." 

Seeking God's grace is an individual effort, but best done within a caring community of faith... join us! You'll be glad you did.

Tucked away in southern Bradenton, Good Shepherd Church is a real place of care and encouragement.

Cindy and Stephen have served Churches across the social spectrum in rural areas, small towns, medium-sized cities and large urban metroplexes. They have also encouraged others called to ministry in seminaries and in working with ministerial interns.
