Good Shepherd Winding Down Mobile App

Similar Features and Experience Now Available through Website

After several years of experimenting with a native mobile application for Good Shepherd, we will be discontinuing the app in favor of a new mobile homepage for our website. By directing all online users to our website, we create one place to manage content, provide updates and create an easy-to-navigate experience on all devices.

The Good Shepherd app will be discontinued on September 23, after which it will no longer be available from app stores and will not receive future updates. If you have installed the app on your iOS or Android device you can simply delete the app and no further action is required on your part.

Many users primarily used the Good Shepherd app as a way to easily watch worship from their mobile device. Thankfully, this functionality is now easily replicated on our existing website. By visiting gslcwi.com/live or gslcwi.tv you will be greeted with a layout that features upcoming worship livestreams as well as the most recent broadcasts. This page also features options for online bulletins, inserts, giving and a way to chat with over viewers.

If you have questions about anything related to the online worship experience or how to engage with Good Shepherd online, you’re invited to connect with Director of Media Eric Holmer at eholmer@gslcwi.com or via phone at 847-809-4457. We’re thankful for the many ways technology allows our congregation to connect wherever we are, and it is our hope that the new improvements to our website allow for increased connection through worship, stories and the many opportunities shared both in-person and online.
