The Church of the Good Shepherd is an Episcopal church and part of the world wide Anglican Communion, that sits on the corner of Electric street and North Washington Avenue in the heart of the Green Ridge section of Scranton. Established in 1868, the church moved to its current location in 1913. The formidable Gothic structure was completed in 1927 when the addition of the adjoining Parish Hall was dedicated.
One historical note, the architect of the church portion of the complex, was Henry Vaughn. Vaughn is a lauded architect for many of his creations, but is most notably known for the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.
