The 5Pm Christmas Eve Mass will be VERY special for the members of Good Shepherd American National Catholic Church! That’s the official time that they will have their OWN church. Located on the corner of Riverwood Drive and Whitesville Road, Good Shepherd will now have Masses on Saturday at 5pm and Sundays at 8 and 10AM. The last few weeks has brought the parishioners together to make the former New Apostolic Church to be come a Catholic Chapel. Led by their Franciscan Friar Pastor, Father Anthony Lipari, FCM as well as Priest Associate Father Miguel Fernandez the church has grown RAPIDLY in the last year. It is an all inclusive church welcoming disenfranchised, alienated, divorced, and hurt Catholics who are looking to continue their Catholic traditions in a more progressive and welcoming celebration. Gays and Lesbians are welcomed in this outreaching church and LGBT Weddings are also welcomed. The weekly Liturgies are understandable and uplifting. Religious Education for youth and families and adults is provided, as well. Father Anthony and the parishioners of Good Shepherd extend a welcoming outreach to everyone who wants to experience Catholic faith with love, hope and celebration. The New Church address is 1890 Whitesville Road and you may call at 732-349-6797 or go online at www.goodshepherdancc.org.
