This is a great opportunity for us to contribute to a great cause and to enjoy a time of fellowship with parishes all over the diocese! We are planning for a large turn out, so we will need help from parents who are willing to drive our group from St. Columba's to Emmaus House and back.

Third Sundays
We've had continued overwhelming response to our two food ministry outreach programs. The Backpacks for Love program we recently joined has had a tremendous start. Our other food ministry program, our support for the food pantries of The Place in Forsyth and of Emmaus House in Atlanta, continues to grow. Please remember that the ingathering for these food pantries is the 3rd Sunday every month. Dry goods like pastas, spaghetti sauce, rice, macaroni and cheese, peanut butter, shelf/box milk, and canned meats and vegatables are needed. Thank you for your support of these three outreach ministries!

May 18 from 7:00-9:00pm
The Holy Oldies group (55&up) will hold their Indy 500 party on Saturday, May 18 at the church. The evening will be a time of food, fellowship, music, and fun. The cost is only $5 per person to cover supplies. Everyone is asked to bring an appetizer to share and a beverage of their choice.
