The After Party is an invitation to model the virtues of hope and humility, bearing Christian witness to a broken and bitterly divided world. If you plan to attend, please RSVP to info@stjamesfairhope.org *What is an Agape meal? This will be a very light, traditional offering of wine, grapes, cheese, etc. Nursery will be available.
