- Stewardship Committee
- ACTS Retreats
  
  An ACTS retreat is a three-day, three-night Catholic lay retreat presented by fellow parishioners. The retreat begins on a Thursday evening as retreatants gather at the sponsoring parish for a short send-off ceremony. They are then transported to a retreat facility for the rest of the weekend. The retreat ends Sunday as the retreatants return to the sponsoring parish for a welcome Mass celebrated with the parish community followed by a simple reception.
  Talks and activities during the retreat focus on Adoration, Community, Theology and Service, from which the ACTS program acronym is derived. Holy Scripture and the teachings of the Roman Catholic Church are the guides for the retreats. The retreat takes on the traditions and atmosphere of the parish community sponsoring it. The retreat facilitates the attainment of a new or deeper relationship with the Lord.
- Funeral Reception Ministry
  
  After a funeral, upon request, volunteers support the family and friends by serving light bites and beverages in one of the venues on the Christ the Good Shepherd campus. Volunteers are available to set up your reception, serve food donated by volunteers or catered by your catering service and clean up the venue.
