Wednesdays in Lent
The Road to Easter: A Personal Journey
Wilderness treks appear many times in Scripture, and in our own lives, as routes from an old reality to a new and better one. For the Jews, coming out of slavery in Egypt, it was the way to the Promised Land. For Jesus, coming up from the water of baptism, it was the movement from carpenter to Messiah.
During this Lent, we will listen to the stories of bishop, priests, deacon and lay people as they have sought to move faithfully from their initial encounter with Christ to their present point on the way.
February 24 The Reverend Chip Faucette
March 3 The Rt. Rev. J. Neil Alexander, Bishop of Atlanta

March 17 The Reverend Elisa Harres
March 24 The Reverend Dr. Robert G. Certain

Adult Program, Winter 2010
In the Episcopal Church, "adults" are 16 or older. All adults who worship regularly with us at St. Peter & St. Paul are encouraged to be officially confirmed, received, and/or renewed in your commitment to Jesus Christ by public vows and the laying on of hands by the Bishop.
This Winter, Father Certain will teach Membership Classes for Adults. These classes will take the form of 3-hour seminars beginnig on Saturday, February 27, 2010. The remaining dates will be: March 6, 2010 and March 13, 2010. We will begin each seminar at 9:00 a.m. and conclude promptly at noon.
Confirmation is the rite in which we express a mature commitment to Christ, and receive strength from the Holy Spirit through prayer and the laying on of hands by a bishop. (BCP, p. 860) Anyone who has never made an adult commitment in this way is urged to participate in these seminars. Adults who have come to us from other Christian bodies are also urged to officially join us. And those who would like a "refresher" course in Church membership are welcome to attend.
Please call the church office at 770-977-7473 to register.

 Cursillo is a movement of the church. Its purpose is to help those in the church understand their individual callings to be Christian Leaders. Many of the most active members of St Peter and St Paul are Cursillistas and have attended a special 3-day Cursillo weekend at Camp Fortson in Hampton, GA.
For more information, see the National Cursillo and the Atlanta Episcopal Cursillo Community (AECC) web sites.
St Peter and St Paul's representative to the AECC is Pam Weed .

YAC (Young Adults in the Church) encourages older youth to take on adult
responsibilities in all aspects of parish life and the community. They are
challenged to become good stewards of their time, talent and treasure.
Guided by adult advisers, they use the Anglican model of scripture, reason
and the tradition of the church to guide the lifelong pilgrimage in their
faith. YAC meets every Sunday morning during Sunday school and the 2nd and 4th Sunday
evenings for youth group.
Feel free to call the church office with any questions regarding our youth programs
