Shepherds, Shepherds


Our young shepherds (from left): Kelsey Venuti, Anna Mia Bresin, Heather Hardenberg, Jenna Venuti, Dylan Venuti and Hunter Hardenberg

Shepherds were farming folk, growing whatever they needed for food. They kept sheep, goats and cattle, and grew crops of olives, figs, grapes, barley, wheat and flax. The life of a shepherd changed little between the days of Ezekiel and that of Jesus. The shepherd led his sheep, knew each one of them and watched over them by day and night.
