We invite you to Shepherd by the Sea to celebrate the first Sunday of Advent on Sunday December 1st. All are welcome as we meet at 38958 Cypress Way in Gualala to celebrate the four weeks of Advent that precede Christmas. Each Sunday we will light a new candle as we await the birth of the Christ Child.
The Rev. Dr. Portia Hopkins will preside at our worship service with holy communion. A fellowship time with coffee and pastries follows the service.
Shepherd by the Sea is a Protestant congregation open to the community in Gualala and the Mendonoma area. Our roots are in the Episcopal Church and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and our worship liturgy is drawn from both traditions.
Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, we would like to meet you. All are welcome to join us!
