Below is a playlist of our past sermons.
YouTube is like television over the internet. Good Shepherd Parish has its own YouTube channel where we share videos that anyone can watch.
If people like our channel, and have a Google account (Gmail, G-Suite, Android phone), they can subscribe to our channel, just like you would with a cable or satellite TV provider, except that our channel is free. People who subscribe to our channel get notified when there’s a new video. We’d love for you to subscribe. Click on the picture below and it will take you to our channel.
Each video on our channel is like an episode of a TV program. Most of our videos are part of the Services, or Sermon, program. If you like a particular video, you can like it and even share it with others. When watching a video you will probably see images underneath it like I’ve included below. Clicking the Thumbs Up means you like it. Clicking on SHARE will give you options to share the video with your friends and family.
Again, this only works if you have a Google account and are logged into it. Otherwise you’ll see a big 
button at the top right of the page. The more likes and subscribers we have, the more people will see our videos. Also, if we get up to 100 subscribers, our channel name could go from this: UCaNles4FGUYFjQOeyzb59GA to something like GSParish to more closely match our website. Wouldn’t that be so much nicer for people?
So, I’m asking you to do your part. If you have a Google account, or don’t mind getting one, subscribe to our channel and when you see a video that you connect with, like it and share it with others.
Thanks,
