Good Shepherd Community

Good Shepherd Community Known for providing quality, affordable housing for independent living seniors, Good Shepherd boasts great amenities and services in a natural setting.

Good Shepherd Community began as an ecumenical mission conceived by the bishops of Arkansas’ Catholic, Episcopal and United Methodist churches to provide an innovative way to fill the need for affordable, not-for-profit housing options for local seniors. Since 1975, Good Shepherd has worked to identify and respond to the health and social needs of senior adults of all ethnicities and backgrounds i

n our community. Over time, Good Shepherd has grown from a single building of 200 apartments into a full-service retirement community with five facilities with more than 500 apartments, all located on a picturesque 145-acre campus in west Little Rock. Good Shepherd is committed to offering our residents a balanced quality of life by providing a true community atmosphere, attractive living spaces, and a healthy and independent lifestyle – with all the comforts and conveniences of home – including good friends and neighbors.

Beat the heat? Challenge accepted!

Our residents took a sweet little trip to Dairy Queen today to escape the summer sizzle. Nothing says a "hot summer day" quite like air conditioning and a cold Blizzard or dipped cone!

Community means walking together — and also remembering together.

This morning, Good Shepherd Community gathered alongside family and friends for our annual Memorial Service to honor the residents who passed away this past year. It was a beautiful service of remembrance filled with prayer, candle lighting, and the peaceful sounds of piano hymns like "Be Thou My Vision" and "He Leadeth Me."

Our deepest thanks to Chaplain Nixon for organizing this meaningful event, to Reverend Kayte Chambers for her comforting words, and to our building managers, who stood in the gap to honor the residents they saw and cared for day in and day out. In lighting those candles, they truly honored the neighbors they watched over.

To the families who trusted us with your loved ones: they are dearly missed, and they will never be forgotten. 🤍
