"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."

We are calling this an Appalachian Red Mass and everyone is invited to a BBQ picnic and sides after.  So, bring your prize-winning pie, wear red, and come join us in a celebration of origins, our past, and our future. 
Easton Cain Memorial Scholarship 
Resurrection Preschool would like to establish a yearly scholarship in memory of one of our students who died tragically on January 17, 2017. This scholarship will be awarded to a child who otherwise could not afford to attend Resurrection Preschool. We would like for this to be an ongoing yearly scholarship. The Preschool Board will review each application and make the determination as to which family will be awarded the scholarship. The amount of the scholarship to be given will be based on the availability of funds.

If you would like to make a donation to the scholarship fund, please provide the information below and send with your check to Resurrection Preschool, 1755 Duncan Bridge Road, Sautee, GA 30571.

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.
