Deb Lafferty

Secretary

Deb and her husband Dillin and daughter Emma joined Good Shepherd in the spring of 2015.  Emma was just a few months old at the time.  It was important to find a church home to raise Emma.   

After Emma was born Deb was able to be a stay-at-home mom.  Once Emma started school full-time it was time for Deb to get back to the workforce.  The opportunity arose to become the secretary at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church.  Being a part time position, this was the perfect opportunity.  Deb has been the secretary at Good Shepherd since June 2020.  Deb enjoys assisting members of the church.  A great blessing since becoming secretary has been a growth in faith and being in the Word daily.
