St. Anne Women's Book Study Group

St. Anne's Women's Book Discussion Group   will read the book  Time and Despondency  by Nicole Roccas for their next meeting  on Sunday, October 28:  

“A condition as old as the ancients, despondency thrives in today’s culture of leisure, anxiety, and digital distraction. Time and Despondency is a penetrating synthesis of ancient theology, spiritual memoir, and self-help practicality. It envisions despondency as the extension of a broken relationship with the experience of time. Driven by the fear of death and the anxiety of living, despondency drives us to abandon the present moment, forsaking the only temporal realm in which we have true fellowship with Christ . ”

We will meet at Debra Mattingly's house. Bring a snack to share if you wish - we will eat and socialize from 4‑4:30 and will end promptly at 6 pm. !

October 18-21 -- Orthodox Campout in NC
The 2018 Area-wide Orthodox Campout in Hot Springs, NC is scheduled for Oct. 18-21
The campout is attended by Orthodox parishes in the Carolinas, Tennessee, Georgia and Kentucky.

This year, St. Anne's has reserved 3 tent camp-sites for our parish for the event in Hot Springs, NC, this year – we hope to be able to accommodate everyone from St. Anne’s who may want to attend. These are riverside, central campsites. Deluxe Site 459 has water and electricity – and can accommodate 2 or 3 tents for those with special needs for electricity (sleep machines). It will also serve as our communal kitchen. Site 461 can handle 2 or 3 tents and has good trees for hammocks, and Site 463 is a group site that can accommodate about 10 tents.
The sites are filling up fast, so If you want space in the St. Anne's reserved group sites, please sign up on the reservation sheet at church. The cost of the sites will be split by those attending. Other campsites are available directly from the Hot Springs Resort and Spa site: https://www.nchotsprings.com/accommodations/   

Remember to Support St. Anne
