The Story of Precious Lambs
In the Bible, Jesus shares the parable of the Shepherd who leaves the ninety-nine sheep to seek out the one lost lamb. This powerful story illustrates God's immense love for each of us, emphasizing that He will never stop searching for us and will always keep us safe. We are depicted as sheep in this story to remind us of our need for a Shepherd who lovingly guides and protects us.
When we began discussing the idea of starting a childcare center, the name "Precious Lambs" felt like a natural extension of our church's mission. Good Shepherd Baptist Church created Precious Lambs to nurture and care for the children of our community, reflecting the same love and dedication that the Shepherd has for His flock.
