The highest form of worship is the worship of unselfish Christian service.
The greatest form of praise is the sound of consecrated feet seeking out the lost and helpless. – Billy Graham

What we do
Maintaining the vision of founder, Marie and Fritz Roche, Good Shepherd

education, service and love.

Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
Today, Good Shepherd serves Haitian communities by continuing to provide a place to
worship, and delivering primary education to young men and women with the introduction of Good
Shepherd Academy.
Operating in Haiti’s capital, Good shepherd Academy provides education to many youth in the
Port-au-Prince area, and offers employment opportunities to local Haitian residents.
Good Shepherd’s philosophy teaches love and encourages a lifestyle of biblical morality and
service to others.
