Men's Retreat

Unicoi State Park
Please join us for a weekend of Spiritual Renewal and Christian Fellowship led by our speaker, The Reverend Dr. Jim Shumard, priest in charge, St. James, Clayton. He will lead our discussion titled, “FIFTY SHADES OF LIVING COLOR: Exploring the multi-verse of scripture”. Come for a weekend of playful and prayerful approaches to stories in scripture, which will give insights into God‘s love for us and into our day-to-day relationship with God and with one another.
Starting on Friday at Noon, we will have optional golf, fishing, hiking, and biking. The formal program will begin on Saturday morning. You can easily drive up on Saturday morning from the Atlanta metro – it’s about 1.5 hour drive. The program ends on Sunday morning, with the program wrap-up and a worship service with Holy Communion.

Morning Reflections
Advent and Lent
In special seasons of the church year, we are encouraged to come away from our routines to make space for quiet reflection and prayer. Just as Jesus made his way into the wilderness to pray, we are encouraged to create intentional space. Morning Reflections offer a mixture of teaching, quiet reflection, and prayer and are organized by the Daughters of the King chapter.
