Parish Christian Formation Surveys: As we enter into the summer months, we are reflecting back on the past year of the Christian formation and looking ahead to next year's planning. 

Your feedback is a key part of this process.

We have put together two surveys that will help with this planning, letting us know what is going well and what areas we can grow into. If you have not already, please take a few minutes and complete the surveys.

Help Needed: We need your help to spread some love and joy at our church! We are looking for volunteers to deliver altar flowers every Monday. It's a simple and rewarding task that will make a huge difference in our parish. Plus, you'll get to see the beautiful smiles on people's faces when they receive these lovely gifts! If you're interested in helping, please call the church office (334-793-7616). 
Food Basket:  Have you noticed the food basket located in the narthex? Did you know that the items donated go towards the Brown Bag Program, which helps feed seniors in our area? It's a great way to give back to our community and make a difference. So next time you're at the church, don't forget to drop off a few items in the basket. Thank you for your generosity! 
Nativity Yoga: We are changing our schedule for the Summer!  Starting immediately, we will meet on the first Saturday of the month in the Parish Hall at 8:30 AM. This class is appropriate for all levels.  Parishioner Chris Drake, a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher, leads the class. The class meets in the parish hall loft. The next session is Saturday, July 1st.
