In the biblical model of faith communities having Shepherds to pastor and oversee the church, Otter Creek's Shepherds provide pastoral support to OC family members, provide theological direction, and serve in a leadership role for our church. Otter Creek Shepherd responsibilities are described in more detail in this Shepherd Job Description. The Shepherds are organized into Pastoral Teams to provide pastoral care to an assigned subset of the church. Those teams meet regularly to pray over OC family members' joys, needs, and hurts, and walk alongside people through life's ups and downs. Please let our Shepherds know if they can pray for you or offer any kind of pastoral care or spiritual guidance. The Shepherds manage some of their overseeing work through a subcommittee of Governance Shepherds.
