Parish Life
“Will you continue in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of bread and in the prayers?” “I will with God’s help.” - The Baptismal Covenant, BCP, p. 304
You’re invited to share with us in celebrations & remembrances – worship, spiritual growth, small groups and big community events, in music and the arts, in outreach and service.
ALL PARISH OPEN HOUSE - All Parish Open Houses at the rectory or a parishioner's home. The last one was for Epiphany - in early January - at the Rectory, home of Lynne and Dean Weber. A good time was had by all!
NEWCOMERS RECEPTION: Saturday, May 21, 2023, afternoon, time tbd. People who began worshipping with us in the last two years are invited to this reception for newcomers, at the Hancock home. Invitations will go out in April, but SAVE the DATE.
LABYRINTH - The Labyrinth located on the front lawn (with patio and bench) is OPEN weather permitting, all year round. Walk the labyrinth at any time. Brochures have also been prepared with information and suggested meditations, and are available inside (and occasionally on the bench outside.)
REFRESHMENTS: Every Sunday church members volunteer to offer refreshments after the 10 am service.
It’s a great opportunity to meet new friends and catch up with those we know.
SMALL GROUPS for spiritual growth and fellowship are detailed on our Adult Ministries page. Join us for Discovery Nights, Bible Study, Book Group, Quiet Days, and the annual fall Adult Education Retreat.
DURING THE CHURCH YEAR, Atonement holds a number of opportunities to gather and get to know each other better, such as: The Country Fair in the fall, Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper in the winter, the Parish Soup Supper during Lent, the Newcomers’ Brunch, and Outreach activities such as "Snack Packs" for hungry kids.
