The Fifth Sunday of Easter
April 29, 2018
"We invite everyone to share communion around God's altar.
We strive to be a welcoming and relevant Christian community doing what matters through prayer, worship, teaching, outreach, fellowship, and service.
We will demonstrate the real life application of scripture, tradition, and
reason by providing a safe place to respond to each other's needs,
hurts, joys, and interests."

World Relief News
Last year, Resurrection joined with Nacoochee Presbyterian and Grace-Calvary to sponsor a couple of Syrian refugee families as they settled into this country. Sarah Burke from World Relief reports that two cars were donated to the two families, and thanks to your generous donations, the two families were able to purchase insurance for 6 months, provide driving lessons, pay for their license, registration and tag for both familie
s. Thank you again for your generosity.

April 4th marks 50 years since the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Join the Sunday Christian Formation conversation, "3 Epistles on Race in America," as we explore contemporary racial relationships using writings that, while perhaps lesser known than King's famous "I have a dream" oratory, resonate powerfully today. The video curriculum includes speakers: New York City journalist Errol Louis, New York University professor and poet Fred Moten, and Trinity Church Wall Street Vicar, Phil Jackson. Hear their examinations of three civil rights era letters from Dr. King, James Baldwin, and Thomas Merton, and reflect with your church community.
