Lynne Rivera, our parish nurse, is responsible for the prayer chain. If you would like to be added to our prayer chain, please send your request to the address above, leave a message in the Church Office at 626-447-2181, or talk to Lynne at the Sunday services.

Send your prayer requests to the new address and mention whether you want the information disseminated to other members of the prayer chain. If you want your prayer request to be shared only with Pastor Eva, state that in your email or call the Church Office and state your request for limited dissemination.

For several years, confidentiality of health information has been an important issue for hospitals and other health care facilities. Pastor Eva and other church staff cannot access patient admissions. Therefore, it’s imperative that you notify the Church Office if a loved one is hospitalized, including the facility name.

Give flowers “in honor of” or “in memory of” loved ones or to  celebrate an anniversary, birthday, accomplishment or 
special event. The cost of the flowers is $65. 

2025 Altar Flowers – The cost for flowers is $65. Payment is via check, cash or online. Checks should be made out to Church of the Good Shepherd, with “Flowers” in the memo line. To place your request, please contact Suzanne Wright in the church office by phone, or email: swright@cgsum.org. Orders go to florist on Thursdays.

1. Call the church office, 626-447-2181, and write a check payable to “Church of the Good Shepherd” with “Altar Flowers” in the memo line.

2. Use our church website to reserve flowers.  You can pay online using our giving page  HERE

The church office will place your order with ZuZu’s Petals of Arcadia. Your personalized message will be announced in church by Pastor Eva on the appropriate Sunday.  The message will also be included in the Sunday bulletin and the next week’s newsletter.

After the 10:00 a.m. Worship Service that Sunday, you may
take your flowers home with you.   If you are unable to pick them, call the office and we will have them in the church office on Monday morning after 9:00 a.m.

Thank you for helping to beautify our worship center!
