"First Sunday" Young Adult (20/30's) Lunch Want to connect with other Young Adults (20's & 30's -ish) at St. Bart's? A fun and informal time to hang out and check in with each other about life, church, etc. First Sunday of the Month Lunch at Mellow Mushroom on Briarcliff & LaVista after the 10:30 a.m. Eucharist. Gather in the parish hall after the service or meet us there at about 12:15 p.m.
Sunday Sabbath & Dinner Weekly dinners and monthly lunches are a fun way for members in their 20's or 30's to join this growing young adult community. Home cooked dinner is offered every Sunday evening at 7:00 p.m., with programs alternating each week: 2nd & 4th Sundays: Dinner in the Taylor Room at Church, with a lively Bible study or focus on a spiritual practice & our now-famous theological conversations, followed by Compline (a meditative, candlelight night prayer) sung by the choir at 8:00 p.m. In this season of Lent, our topic will be on the history, liturgy, and spiritual practice of confession. The Book of Common Prayer Reconciliation of a Penitent will be discussed and we will read Martin Smith’s book, Reconciliation: Preparing for Confession in the Episcopal Church. The sacramental rite of reconciliation is often overlooked in the Book of Common Prayer, and it is particularly interesting to discuss its place during this season. 1st, 3rd & 5th Sundays: Dinner at Amerson House (at the far end of the church parking lot), exploring the Christian practice of Discernment & Group Spiritual Direction, with meditative exercises & conversations designed to help each other seek & find divine guidance and human support in the big and small decisions of our lives. Followed by a contemplative, Celtic-inspired night prayer at 8:30 p.m.
DIOCESAN EVENTS FOR YOUNG ADULTS For more than a year, young adults from across the diocese have come together to create a connection between our parishes, and the result of this is DAYA, the Diocese of Atlanta Young Adults ministry. Our primary mission is to enable people in their 20s and 30s to grow in their faith and connect with their peers through diocesan, local church, and independently sponsored events. With Bishop Alexander's blessing, we are spreading the message of this ministry to encourage greater participation in the Church by young adults. For much more information, and an update to what is happening this month, link to the DAYA website: www.dofaya.org Regular events include:
Ichabod's Night at the Movies - First Wednesday of Every Month, 7:30 p.m. Get ready for the next installment of Ichabod's. More than a movie night, less than a lecture series - it's a seriously involved examination of faith and spirituality in unexpected places. With a home-cooked meal from a fellow young adult, it's a great time for fun and fellowship. Always the first Wednesday of each month, the next INAM be held on March 5 at 7:30. INAM is held at Amerson House at St. Bart's - 1790 LaVista Road NE, 30329.
Sunday's Cool - NEW TIME! - Second Sunday of Every Month, 1:00 p.m. Get it? Sunday School? It's kind of like that, but not really. The second Sunday of every month, we'll get together for lunch at Jason's Deli at 1:00 p.m. Located at 10^th and Piedmont, this event enables us to get together, relax, and reflect on everything from great sermons to upcoming activities at our parishes.
Theological Brew - Last Thursday of Every Month , 7:30 p.m. Theological Brew continues at Manuel's Tavern. Focusing on everything from Conflict within God's Community to Social Justice, Episcopal Evangelism, and more. Bring your appetite, some good ideas, and a few friends for fellowship served with a side of spiritual discussion. All are welcome!
