Second Collection Easter Weekend

Easter weekend, our second collections will support the seminarians of the Archdiocese of Atlanta. We have been blessed with many vocations to the priesthood, and your prayers and generous gifts today support nearly 40 men who are now preparing for future priestly service in North Georgia. Every dollar collected stays within the archdiocese to educate our seminarians.

OKMS Needs Volunteers

Orchard Knob Middle School is looking for volunteers to participate in an afterschool program on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. for twenty 6th graders. For anyone interested in sharing a skill/hobby or information pertinent to that age group, the middle school would greatly appreciate your time and effort. You can do one or multiple sessions, depending on your free time. Miller and Ann Epps will start with a birdhouse building/decorating session. Please let Anne know if you are interested in helping, 423-653-4950. It should be a fun time! Thanks.
