Shepherding Program
The Shepherding Program at Clarkesville First UMC is a program for older adults. Members of our church are assigned an older adult who has requested a "Shepherd". A Shepherd does many things, most importantly makes a phone call once every other week to check on their person (we call that person a sheep). Many times a Shepherd will run an errand for their Sheep or pick up a few groceries. During the pandemic we initiated this program which encompassed over 350+ people. We sent out a survey in October of 2020 and reduced our numbers close to 25+. If you would like to be a Shepherd or you need a Shepherd to call on you, please let me know. I would be happy to connect you with a wonderful, caring person.
Christy Hinson, Director of Older Adult Ministries.
