MINISTRIES
Good Shepherd Church - Church of Joy
Nancy has a heartfelt connection to this Long Island church aka “little white church that could, would, and still does.” Her journey here started with a suggested “quick hello” meeting with pastor to have coffee – she left 30 minutes later as the coordinator of the media section for Vacation Bible School. Five years later their relationship has proven to be extremely fruitful as together, they consistently collaborate how to best reach the community and share God’s love and blessings.
