* Background color denotes color of current liturgical season.
We are ENCOURAGING masks continue to be worn at this time.
Masks will continue to be available for those who desire to worship with a mask. We fully support anyone who chooses to wear a face mask and/or keep their distance. Whether a person chooses to wear a mask, or not, is entirely up to them. A person who chooses to continue masking may have an underlying health condition, be caring for a vulnerable relative or work with those who are immune compromised. Whatever decision each person makes, and whenever they choose to make it, is entirely their own and should be respected. We need to continue to care for each other with compassion and devotion.
More information on current numbers and precautions can be found below. Location Ohio County Ashtabula.

A MESSAGE FROM OUR PASTOR
Welcome, grace, and peace to you from our Triune God.
I would like to give you thanks for taking the time to explore what we are about here at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church of Conneaut, OH. We are a bunch of different people from multiple backgrounds and different experiences who come together to worship God. We welcome all people to worship with us, to be part of our Sunday School, and to be part of our community.
As the pastor, I will never refuse a person at the table of Christ and the scripture of God's Word. Jesus says, "'Come to me, all that are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light'" (Matthew 11:28-30, NRSV). Jesus is the Good Shepherd and we all are His flock. We welcome you into the flock of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church where our people are gentle and humble in heart, where Jesus will take your heavy burdens and give you rest.
I and the people of Good Shepherd look forward to meeting you and getting to know who you are.
Peace be upon you.
The Rev. Joshua Krenz, Pastor
