We enjoy worshiping at SOTH as we are assured that God's word is taught in its truth and purity. We value various fellowship opportunities that are geared towards adults, children, and families. It is truly heartwarming to hear our daughter talk about Jesus and sing songs of praise while at church and at home.

My wife and I have been members of Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church for over 15 years now.  We joined shortly after retiring to Arizona. Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church has been a blessing for us and has had a huge positive influence on our spiritual growth.  Starting with Pastor Eckert and continuing on now with both him and Pastor Schmidt, we have constantly been fed with the word and the Gospel.  We are so grateful for the roles they have played in our lives.  Praise the Lord!

I started going to Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church when I was in middle school. Even back then, we had a great youth group. I am so thankful that my church still considers Christian Education a top priority!

We searched for over a year, trying different denominations (even Catholic), non-denominational churches, big churches, small churches. We couldn’t find one we were comfortable in and which had good preachers.
One day my wife had occasion to mention to a client about our trouble finding a new church. The client suggested her church, Shepherd of the Hills, which we hadn’t heard about. We checked it out and were instantly impressed. We were first impressed with the preaching ability of the two ministers. Then as we came to know more members we were equally impressed with the “family” atmosphere at Shepherd of the Hills.

I love being back to my home church after moving years ago.
I went to the contemporary service, and being older it was a “joyful change.” Singing new praises to our Lord and Savior and listening to the Gospel message always touches part of me. My four year old grand daughter loves to go to church with grandma and has to sit up by Pastor, who she looks up to.
Watching her try to keep up with the songs, I smile at her, and she likes to clap after songs. Lastly, the saying hello to fellow members is so great. When she comes with me she loves people shake her hand and she loves to tell them her name. It’s a joy to be welcomed “home.”

We fell in love with Shepherd of the Hills on our first visit some 33 years ago.  It is such a warm and family-type atmosphere.  My wife, Carola, greatly enjoys the Serve-Him-in-Everything (SHiNE) group activities and women’s groups, and I enjoy serving in leadership roles.

I have been a member of Shepherd of the Hills since 2002.  The congregation is like home. The pure Word of God is preached here and taught in all the Bible classes.  Our Pastors are very special men of God, and they visit us when we are sick and are always on call. The people are friendly and helpful to all. We have a wonderful building to worship in and a new class room for our Bible classes. Visitors are never strangers and are made to feel welcome.  I don't know what I would do without my church. Praise God for it. We have a choir and a great director which I am happy to sing with.
