PARISH-WIDE EVENTS

Episcopalians love to break bread together, and not just in our worship.  St. Michael’s certainly bears this out.

CELEBRATIONS FOR THE CHRISTIAN YEAR

During Holy Week, we have an Agape Supper on the evening we remember Jesus’ Last Supper.

On the Day of the Resurrection, our Easter morning congregations gather for a delicious breakfast potluck, the Men’s Bonnet Parade between the services, along with a children’s Easter Egg Hunt on the front lawn and the youth Easter Egg Hunt on the back lawn.

On the Feast of Pentecost, fifty days after Easter, we recall the story of the Holy Spirit allowing people from many nations to hear the good news in their own language. During church, lessons are read in non-English languages and afterwards the luncheon includes parishioners’ food from their heritage groups. Many dress in wonderful ethnic outfits.   

St. Michael and All Angels Feast Day in late September is likewise observed not only in worship with special vestments but in a feast shared afterwards.

FELLOWSHIP FOR FUN

SPRING RETREAT

Later in the Spring, all are invited to attend a wonderful weekend retreat at beautiful Camp Mikell (campmikell.com) in Toccoa, Georgia.  

4TH OF JULY PICNIC

A 4th of July picnic is held off-site. A cookout and potluck, it is a highlight of summer fellowship.

POTLUCK AND GIFT SWAP

As the Christmas Holidays approach, all women of the church gather for a potluck supper and silly gift swap.

Other events

Fall Festival, a BBQ, bingo, and trivia night (new) —are scheduled on a more or less annual basis.
