Welcome to Good Shepherd Catholic Community, a vibrant and loving Catholic parish serving the faithful across four beautiful worship sites: St. Patrick’s in Moravia, St. Patrick’s in Aurora, St. Michael’s in Union Springs, and Our Lady of the Lake in King Ferry.
No matter where you come from, who you are, or where you find yourself on life’s journey, you are welcome here. We believe in the boundless love of God and that we are all members of His family, united in faith, hope, and love.
This is His house—a place of peace, prayer, and fellowship where we come together to celebrate the sacraments, deepen our faith, and support one another. Whether you’re a lifelong Catholic, new to the Church, or simply seeking a place to feel the love of God, you belong here.
We invite you to join us in worship, grow with us in faith, and share in the joy of Christ’s presence in our community. Welcome home!

A Bereavement Group will meet on the third Wednesday of the month from 1:30 to 3:00 pm in Schrader Hall, beginning on January 15, 2025 . Each week we discuss a specific topic, usually suggested by the group. There is time for sharing and then a video and discussion time. The topic for January is “Forgiveness”, which might mean the need to forgive ourselves, the deceased, or family members. Contact Bernie Tomasso at 315-246-3440 or berniet8@gmail.com.
Every First Sunday of the month we ask you to please take a slip from the Fish Bowl, purchase the item or items and bring them back to the church the next weekend. The items will then be brought to our local food pantries in Union Springs, Moravia, and the KFFP at SCCS.
