SERVICES

A Reconciling in Christ congregation is a Christian community that has adopted a statement of welcome approved by Reconciling Works. This statement specifically includes the LGBTQ community and affirms their full participation in the life of the congregation. This includes the ability to receive sacraments, hold leadership positions, and be ordained as pastors or deacons.

Good Shepherd Lutheran Church of Gilroy is one such inclusive Christian community that has adopted this statement of welcome. They welcome people of all sexual orientations and gender identities fully into the life of their congregation. By adopting this statement of welcome, they are creating a safe and welcoming environment for LGBTQ individuals to worship, participate in the sacraments, and hold leadership positions within the church.

In summary, being a Reconciling in Christ congregation means making a deliberate effort to welcome and affirm the LGBTQ community, and reflect a commitment to treating all individuals with respect and dignity.

Welcome parents! If you're looking for a nurturing and stimulating environment for your little ones, consider the benefits of play-based, half-day preschool. Young children learn best through play, which promotes cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development. In a play-based preschool, children are encouraged to explore, experiment, and discover through hands-on activities, games, and interactions with peers and caring adults. Half-day programs provide a perfect balance of structured learning and unstructured play, giving children the opportunity to build skills, confidence, and independence at their own pace. At our preschool, we prioritize play-based learning and aim to create a warm and inclusive environment where children can thrive. Explore our website to learn more about our curriculum, facilities, and values, and discover why play-based, half-day preschool is so very important for your child's growth and development.
