PASTOR'S CORNER

 

The chapel at Njase Girls Secondary School is decorated with life-sized wall paintings by late Zambian muralist and Christian painter Emmanuel Nsama that have majestically covered both sides of the interior for the past 42 years.  You can see more images and read more about this chapel at: http://andrewmulenga.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
 
This is the last week of Sunday School with the Rev. Fred Wise - Artist in Residence at Oakhurst Presbyterian Church. Together we have been exploring the intersection of art and faith.  I hope to see you there at 9:30 am - all ages are welcome!
 
In Christ,

 

George

Maundy Thursday Worship Experience 

Please invite your friends and neighbors to join us for Maundy Thursday Worship Experience. 

At 6:30 pm, April 17, we will gather to share a meal and re-embody the Last Supper that Jesus shared with those whom he loved. Mediterranean Grill will cater the dinner with plenty of chicken, salad, rice, pita, dates and nuts for everyone to enjoy.

After the meal we will head into the sanctuary for scripture reading and a stripping of the sanctuary. It is a powerful service where the symbols of our faith are stripped from the sanctuary and the Passion of Christ is read from scripture.  

Please call the church office to make meal reservations 404 292 8212.

 

Good Friday

April 18 

 

Good Friday is a deeply spiritual and moving reflection on the events of Maundy Thursday as we await resurrection on Easter Sunday.  We will be joining Mercy Church for Good Friday worship on the streets of Atlanta at 11 am - Freedom Park.

SPRING FLING AND AUCTION 2014

The auction includes items such as gift cards and services as well as projects prepared by each class. Money raised by the event is used to fund school needs such as playground maintenance supplies and teacher resources.

If you would like to donate or know of someone/organization that may have an item in good condition for auction, please contact the school office at 404-296-1783.
