Welcome to Morning Star Christian Fellowship

Good Shepherd Christian School

Good Shepherd Christian School has not been in operation since the school year 2020-21. There is a committee exploring future possibilities. If interested, please contact 845-339-4488.

Good Shepherd Christian School has been a ministry of Morning Star Christian Fellowship since 1980. Good Shepherd School is a Kindergarten through 8th grade school which offers excellent education in an atmosphere of Christ’s love. Good Shepherd teaches and honors God’s word, and promotes behavior which is consistent with the life of Jesus.

Adopt-A-Nation

The “International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church” was founded in 1996 because there are many countries where Christians are at risk practicing their faith. With more Christians martyred during the twentieth century than all nineteen previous centuries combined, consistent prayer is a primary request. Adopt-A-Nation simplifies the task of joining others in mobilizing prayer for millions and millions of people.
