Music has a unique way of transcending barriers and touching hearts. At Good Shepherd, our Music Mondays program, held during seven summer evenings, has become a source of joy, inspiration, and community, making it a true highlight of our ministry.
Each Monday, the lawn in front of our Madison campus transforms into a lively hub of music and fellowship. Talented musicians from a variety of genres take the stage, offering performances that inspire and delight. From acoustic melodies to lively marching band tunes—including a memorable appearance by the UW Marching Band—Music Mondays feature something for everyone.
What makes Music Mondays truly special is its ability to bring people together. Families, friends, and neighbors gather with picnic blankets and chairs, enjoying not just the music but also the sense of connection it fosters. The event is for all ages, creating moments of joy and togetherness that span generations.
A highlight of the evenings is the Holy C.O.W. food truck, serving delicious meals that turn the event into a feast for both the ears and the taste buds. The smell of good food mingling with the sound of live music creates an atmosphere that’s hard to beat.
Music Mondays also serves as an incredible outreach opportunity, drawing in members of the local neighborhood and beyond. It’s a chance for our church to engage with the community in a welcoming and joyful way, building relationships that extend far beyond the music itself.
As we reflect on impactful moments from the past year, Music Mondays stands out as a testament to the power of music to bring us closer to God and to each other. We are deeply grateful to the musicians, volunteers, and attendees who make this ministry possible. Your enthusiasm and support turn these summer evenings into cherished memories.
Thank you for making Music Mondays a space where harmony, fellowship, and Christ’s love abound. Together, we’re creating a tradition that resonates long after the music ends.
