We are into the last week of October already. Good Shepherd parishioners and the students and staff of Bear Lodge High School will enjoy an ice cream and cake social this Thursday, the 28th, at 2:30 in the parish hall. On Sunday, the 31st, Morning Prayer will be read. Our new bishop, the Rt. Revd. John S. Smylie, will be at Good Shepherd for his visitation on the first weekend of November. Included in the weekend will be a soup supper on Saturday night with music and visiting with Bishop John, and on Sunday he will preside and preach. The Sundance Bell Choir will play for us at 9:00 - before church. After worship, brunch will be served and enjoyed before we say 'goodbye for now' to Bishop John.
