Our Story

Good Shepherd began as an exploratory mission by the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod in 1985, under the direction of St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Balaton.  Consisting of 7 families, the congregation worshiped in an old Episcopal church building until the congregation purchased its current facility at 711 5th Ave SW in 2005.

In 1993, Good Shepherd was officially organized as a Lutheran congregation and joined the Wisconsin Synod.
