Our Mission


Connecting Children with Families and Keeping Families Connected

Jesus Christ set forth the example of a good shepherd, one who watches over, cares for and guides those in need. It is the work of Good Shepherd Children & Family Services to keep the children in our care safe, to help them heal, to provide them the skills for self care and connect them with those who will provide support throughout their lives.

Real Life Stories of Our Kids
Real Life Stories
Children and teens in foster youth are often spoken of in terms of statistics – 10,000 Missouri kids in foster care, the number aging out each year, those who are likely to be homeless or pregnant after leaving foster care, etc. – but they are real, live, one-of-a-kind kids with real stories to tell. In foster homes throughout our community and here at Good Shepherd, foster youth are pursuing education, getting jobs, learning how to be responsible adults … all as they prepare to become members of permanent, safe and loving families. Their hopes and dreams are much the same as other kids’ and with the support of those who truly care, they are doing much more than mere statistics would indicate.

Special thanks to Stephanie Gallagher and the Friends of Good Shepherd for spearheading this one-of-a-kind event! 

The event offers a way for young golfers to work on their game and provide for those less fortunate.  We look forward to seeing them all back next year and then, in a few years, at the Good Shepherd Annual Golf Tournament!
