The Good Shepherd UCC had a great celebration on Sunday, December 17, thanking Rev. Rebecca McElfresh for her ministry at the Good Shepherd.

Dr. Toni was on hand for the celebrations, too. There were two worship services and a reception in her honor and for her husband Jim who has been a great supporter of her ministry and the church.

Rebecca’s impactful ministry touched so many. Congratulations, Rev. Rebecca, the best is yet to come!
