The congregation of Good Shepherd Community of Faith is a diverse body of people who are unified by a common belief in Jesus Christ. Having experienced the love and grace of Christ, we take seriously God's call to ministry and mission.
Our constitution begins: "We the congregation of Good Shepherd Community of Faith, Buffalo, New York, declare ourselves to be a Welcoming and Affirming congregation. We will reach out with love to any and all people who enter our doors seeking God with Faith in Jesus Christ as Savior. We recognize all human beings as worthy and loved by God.
