Volunteers Needed for VBS 2026 - Snowball Mountain Challenge!
Get ready for an exciting week of faith, fun, and frosty adventures—Vacation Bible School is coming! Our Snowball Mountain Challenge VBS will take place July 13–17 from 8:30am–12:30pm, and we need your help to make it a success.
We’re looking for volunteers of all kinds to support this incredible week. Whether you can help lead a group, assist with activities, prepare snacks, or simply lend a hand where needed, there’s a place for you. And don’t worry—you don’t have to commit to the whole week. Even if you can only help for one day, your time and energy will make a meaningful difference.
Join us as we guide kids through a week of discovery and growing in faith—all set in a fun, winter-themed adventure!
If you're interested in volunteering or would like more information, please sign up or contact the church office. We’d love to have you on the team!

Craft Supplies Needed for VBS 2026 - Snowball Mountain Challenge!
As we prepare for our upcoming Snowball Mountain Challenge Vacation Bible School (July 13–17), we’re gathering supplies to make this week of faith and fun truly unforgettable—and you can help!
We’ve created an Amazon Wish List filled with supplies and materials needed for VBS crafts. These hands-on projects help bring each day’s lesson to life, and your support makes it all possible.
If you’d like to contribute, simply visit our Wish List, choose an item (or two!), and have it shipped directly to the church. It’s a quick and easy way to be part of this meaningful ministry, even if you’re not able to volunteer in person.
Thank you for helping us create a fun, faith-filled experience for all the kids who will attend!

Exciting News from The Green Team
We reached our goal of collecting 1000 pounds of plastic and have received a bench! Thank you to everyone who helped us achieve this goal, and for keeping 1000 pounds of plastic out of landfills.
We will no longer be collecting plastic towards a goal. However, we can continue to collect plastic as a convenience for you if we have your help. We need people who are willing to take the plastic from the bin at church to a drop off location such as Publix, Target, or Walmart and put the plastic in the bins there. If you are willing to help, please use this Sign Up Genius: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/30E0F4DA9AC2BA2FB6-63804931-plastic#/ If you have questions about what is involved, please contact Becky White at 404-789-5468 (talk or text).
Alternatively, we encourage you to take the plastic with you when you shop and drop it off. And, as always, the best option of all is to refuse plastic bags and packaging whenever and wherever you can!

Love Offering For May - Grace House Ministry at Georgia Tech
Our love offering for May will be the Grace House Ministry at Georgia Tech. All monies collected will go toward those planning to attend seminary or are currently in seminary to pursue a career in ministry.
Grace House is a radically welcoming and inclusive community advocacy ministry that inspires, equips, and engages our campus by modeling Jesus’ love, service, and compassion.
Grace [Coffee] House is a joint ministry of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta and the Southeastern Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). We proudly serve the Georgia Tech community in Atlanta, Georgia.
It may seem on the surface that our welcome is just a cup of coffee but really, our welcome is hope. Hope is needed in a world that seems fraught with division and hope is needed in the lives of Georgia Tech students. Hope that they will see the other side of a looming midterm, hope that at some point a social life will return, hope that all this hard work is going to be worth it, hope that one day they might have time to sleep, or hope that there is someplace they can still go to get a free cup of coffee, a smile, and for someone to ask “how’s your week going?”. We want to live into that hope for students in all that we do.
For more information, please visit: https://gracepeople.org/
