El Buen Pastor is a vibrant and fruitful ministry that is spiritually forming our children, youth, young adults and adults into the likeness and maturity of Jesus.  We love sharing the powerful stories of the many lives changed by God's love and saving grace through faith in Jesus.  We bless our community through the daily Christian witness of our church members.  Our "Small Blessings" ministry offers quality clothing at a low cost to the community.  
 
Over El Buen Pastor's 130 year history, fifteen persons from our faith community have gone on to proclaim the grace of the good news of the Gospel as ordained ministers.  One of them, Rev. Bishop Minerva Carcaño, is the first Hispanic clergywoman to be elected a United Methodist bishop.  She serves the Phoenix Episcopal Area and the Desert Southwest Annual Conference.
 
El Buen Pastor continues to grow in ministry and membership and has a burning desire to be used by God for greater things.  We're excited about what the Lord is doing among us and we want to reach a new generation for Jesus Christ!
