The Rev. Eric W. Evers, Associate Pastor, has served at Good Shepherd since September 1999. He was raised in central Massachusetts and attended Connecticut College in New London, CT where he graduated summa cum laude with honors and distinction in 1995. Pastor Evers received his Master of Divinity at Luther Seminary in Saint Paul, MN in May 1999 with the Bruce Prize in New Testament and the Interpretation award for Biblical Studies. Pastor Evers married The Rev. Paige G. Evers who serves as pastor of Lord of Life Lutheran Church in Edgewood, MD. The Evers young family includes one daughter, Sigrid Faith. Pastor Evers loves technology, fountain pens, and listening to all forms of music - from Bach to funk, bluegrass to hip-hop.

Deborah S. Woods, Director of Music, was born in Baltimore where she took her first music lessons at Peabody Preparatory and her first organ lessons at First English Lutheran Church, her family's home congregation. She graduated from Hollins College in 1970 with a degree in Music history and settled in Crofton, MD where she raised a family of three children (Christine, Jennifer, and James) and taught music in the Anne Arundel County public schools. Debby completed her Master's of Education degree from the University of Maryland (1975). Upon retirement from the school system in 2004, Debby traveled to Trinity Seminary in Columbus, OH, where she completed a Master's degree in Church Music in 2006.

Debby now lives in Timonium, MD and is excited and challenged by the many avenues in which the music ministry at Lutheran Church of the Good Shepherd may develop and grow.
