Parish life

Coffee Hosts & Hospitality

Parishioners volunteer each week to prepare coffee and refreshments for the 8:30 and 10:45 Sunday services. It is a vibrant ministry that encourages fellowship after services as a welcoming way to introduce newcomers to our parish. Volunteers are also needed to assist with receptions or other gatherings after funerals or other special functions.

SASSE- Socially Active Single Senior Episcopalians

SASSE is a social organization for the benefit of older members of the parish. The group was formed to provide support for one another by forming bonds of friendship. The members participate in monthly luncheons and occasional outings.

Men's Breakfast Group

The Men of Holy Spirit meet for breakfast on the second Saturday of the month from September through May at the church. This in an informal gathering for fellowship, great food and an exchange of news on things going on around the parish. Breakfast is prepared by members of the group and there’s no charge. On occasion the members take on a minor project around the church after the breakfast.

Parish Weekend

Each year, parishioners of all ages- singles, couples and families- gather at Camp Mikell in Toccoa for a relaxing weekend of fellowship and learning. A planned program is always available for adults, teens and children, or you may just relax and enjoy the peace and beauty of Camp Mikell.

Foyers

Foyers is a social ministry where groups are formed at random, into groups of usually eight adults. Each group usually meets monthly in members’ homes for a simple meal and relaxed conversation. The focus is on hospitality, rather than entertainment, and the gatherings are devoted to getting to know each other as part of the larger community of faith and having fun together.
