Church of the Good Shepherd, Raleigh

Church of the Good Shepherd, Raleigh

All Saints Chapel of the Church of the Good Shepherd is a historic Episcopal chapel in southeastern Raleigh that is part of the Episcopal Free Church of the Good Shepherd. In the middle of the 19th century, there was only one Episcopal church in Raleigh. A disagreement between certain church members led to a desire for a split of the church. In 1873, the Reverend Edward R. Rich of St. Paul's Church in Clinton, North Carolina suggested that a new Episcopal Church in Raleigh be started. During the beginning of the 20th century the chapel moved from its original location to Morgan Street. In 2006, the church was moved again. The church is currently located right outside Historic Oakwood.
