1870-71

On July 17, 1870, the Rev. James Lee Gillogly from New York led the first service of what would become the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd in the waiting room of the Ogden Union Station.

 

In 1871, the corner of land on which Good Shepherd stands was purchased thanks to a $1500 donation from a Mr. Wolfe of New York City. For a period of several years, the existing tannery was used as a school and church. (goodshepherdogden.org)

"It is fitting that the Church of the Good Shepherd should be called a Memorial Church, since the church building itself and almost everything used inside have been given in memory of persons connected with the parish life."

- Thelma Ellis, author of "Our Memorials of the Church of the Good Shepherd" (1993)
