When local golfers gathered at the Ridges Golf Club on Saturday, September 26, for Good Shepherd Episcopal Church's second annual Charity Golf Outing, they beat cloudy skies and also broke last year's record for participation.

This Saturday, October 3rd from 10:00am-11:00am at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church in Hayesville, you and your pet—no matter how small, big, feathered, gilled, slimy, or furry—are welcome to come receive a blessing in honor of the Feast Day of Saint Francis of Assisi, patron saint of animals. 

All area golfers are cordially invited to join the golfers of Good Shepherd Episcopal Church Hayesville in our 2nd annual benefit outing, at 12:30 on September 26 at the Ridges Golf Club. Chairmen Jim Redmond and Kanute Rarey are getting excited because they remember what a great time everyone had last year. Golfers of all levels, both men and women, are welcome for fun, fellowship, food, and fund-raising.

When recently retired educators Turner Guidry and Georgia Bethel attended the annual Founder's Day dinner at Good Shepherd Episcopal Church on August 22, the couple did not know they would receive special recognition for their years of service. Parishioners at the church presented them with a generous check that will be used to establish a college scholarship fund for meritorious students in this area.
