Good Friday - Stations of the Cross

  • 214 Main Street Nashua, NH, 03060 United States (map)
  • Google Calendar ICS

Join us for CGS Stations of the Cross City Walk--A Search for Home

Meet in the Sanctuary of CGS.

The fourteen stations in this liturgy are based strictly on events in the Gospels and have been adapted to locations around the Church of the Good Shepherd in Nashua. Because CGS is located on Main Street, the congregation has long experienced the issues faced by an urban church. Nashua has experienced a dramatic increase in unhoused individuals, caused in part by housing shortages, a lack of funds for mental health and addiction care, and the actions of surrounding communities.  The increase in the unhoused population has caused friction in the city, as shelters in Nashua have struggled to keep up with the number of people on the streets. How do we as Christians, respond?

As we walk through the neighborhood around CGS we will stop at "stations" and strive to see our neighbors as Christ sees them and us, as beloved children of God, redeemed by his Sacrifice. We will renew and affirm the CGS community’s commitment to our baptismal vow to seek and serve Christ in all persons, loving our neighbors as ourselves. 

The liturgy for this walk was created by our own Sarah Patton. We hope you can join us.

Contemplative Prayer and Brown Bag Lunch and Book Study

Every Monday at 11:30am we will gather in the sanctuary of the Church for a half hour of quiet Contemplative Prayer. We'll follow our prayer time with Book Study and brown bag lunch.

All are welcome to join!

Contemplative prayer is a practice of centering yourself in prayer and opening to God's presence. After Prayer we will move to the Lounge for lunch and book discussion. We will be reading books that deepen our spiritual journey and challenge us to broaden our theological understanding.

You may join us for both, or come just for prayer or for book study. If you come to the book study, feel free to bring a lunch. Our current book is Accidental Saints by Nadia Boz-Weber.

I hope to see you there! Pastor Kathy

With Signs Too Deep for Words

With Signs Too Deep for Words

Mental Health Awareness Month:

With Sighs Too Deep for Words - January 11, 4:00 PM

A presentation by The Rt. Rev. Rob Hirschfeld, Bishop of the NH Episcopal Church, Followed by a potluck dinner.

We are honored to have Bishop Rob join us to give a presentation and take questions about his struggles with depression and his book on the subject, With Sighs to Deep for Words: Grace and Depression. "Christians often feel that their experience of depression or mental illness is a reflection of a deficit in their faith. As a result of seeing depression as a moral shortcoming or spiritual failure, we risk more damage to ourselves and even hurt those around us by denying what is really going on. With Sighs to Deep for Words, with its prayers and practical suggestions for spiritual and creative practices and resilience, is a companion for those who suffer so that they may know more deeply the resilient love of Jesus." (from the book jacket). There are 10 copies of the Bishop's book available in the office and it is also available on Kindle.

Please sign up HERE. RSVP not required but helpful to provide proper food.
