Parish Life events promote
fellowship and fun as a vital element in the life of St. Aidan's.
This includes the following,
some of which you will find on the links to the left: Men's group,
Breakfast ministry, Episcopal Church Women, Daughters of the King,
Wednesday night suppers during Lent, St. Aidan's day, Spring Parish
Picnic, Small group ministry, Foyers, Coffee Team, Recreation, (including
a
Hikers group), and
Fellowship Groups (Tweeners and
Primetimers).
The
Tweeners is a social group of the parish for those ages 30-55. We meet in
people's homes or at local restaurants during the year for fellowship.
Whether you are single or married, with or without children, you are
welcome to join us and get some good informal time with other members of
the parish. If you have questions about the next Tweeners gathering,
please call the church office.
The
Primetimers is a social
group for those ages 50+. We meet in homes , restaurants, at the
theater and other venues. Singles and couples are welcome. Our
goal is to get to know each other and to have a good time.
Please call the church office for information about the
Primetimers.
Each Fall near the end of October, we
take a parish retreat to
Camp Mikell
in the mountains outside Toccoa, Georgia. Familes and singles alike
enjoy hiking, pumpkin carving, some down time for reading or doing
"whatever" and nightly activities, including time around the camp
fires. Some spiritual reflection and a casual Sunday morning
Eucharist are also part of the weekend. The 2008 retreat dates are
October 24-26. Registration materials will be available in the
summer.
There are many other areas where our
parishioners are active. Please call the office to contact a
ministry chairperson.
