Retirement of David Tafelmeyer – After 29 years as the Music Director, Organist and Envelope Secretary, David announced his retirement at Good Shepherd’s Annual General Meeting on February 15. David’s last service will be March 15.  A farewell event honoring David’s many years of service has been scheduled for Sunday, March 15 in the Lower Hall immediately following worship. Good Shepherd would like to extend a warm invitation to Trinity folks to join us, for worship at 9 am and/or the reception immediately following in the Lower Hall. A gift presentation of our appreciation (immeasurable) will take place at the end of the worship service.

David Tafelmeyer has faithfully served both the GSA community and ours whenever needed, and we have been truly blessed by his dedication and the gift of his music. At the same time, we are grateful that Christian Yokosawa has said yes to the request to serve as Accompanist at Good Shepherd Anglican Church beginning March 15, 2026. We look forward to continuing to work together with Good Shepherd in a spirit of mutual cooperation. We give thanks for David’s faithful ministry and wish him every blessing in his retirement.
