Meal Ministry Volunteers Needed
Interested in expanding your involvement at Saint Luke's? The Loving Care committee is looking for volunteers to help with our meal ministry. A simple home cooked meal or one purchased from the deli or a restaurant can mean all the difference in the world to someone who is at home recovering from hospitalization, treatment, an injury or a new baby. Meals are also offered to families suffering the loss of a loved one. Requests are sent out to the group through Sign Up Genius. You can participate as much or as little as you like. Please contact Janis Kilgore, head of Loving Care, via phone (770-454-7972) or email (
kilgore.janis@gmail.com), if you would like to be a member of this important ministry. Thanks for your consideration!

Would you like to help keep our church family connected?
Staying connected to each other has perhaps never been more important. While our Deacons are doing great ministry with their flocks, we know there is more that we, as a church family, can do. We have devised a system to help ensure that our members, particularly those who may need extra encouragement during this time, feel connected as a church family. If you would like to assist in this effort to stay connected, please volunteer on our web site, or contact Shannon Dill, Mary Martin or Cathie Rogers.
Do You Need Assistance?
The Board of Deacons of the church has mobilized care and caregivers for anyone who needs assistance during this time of isolation, like shopping and other errands. Contact Pastor Shannon Dill or Loving Care Committee deacon chair Janis Kilgore for more information.
Saint Luke's Prayer Connections
One of the best ways we have to be connected together right now is through our prayers! For one another and for those who have named they would like to receive them. Would you like to be added to the Saint Luke's Prayer List, by which you can be guided in prayers for the community and congregation? If so, please email
pastors@slpres.org and
ask to be added to a weekly email distribution list.
Saint Luke's Support for Those in Job Transition
In these difficult economic times, furloughs and layoffs are becoming all too common, and we want to support each other and our neighbors in employment transition. Saint Luke's is so fortunate to have human resources professionals willing to support and network with those who need it.

Tracy Coffie (404-273-3003) are each willing to help as they are able. And your pastors are, too! Let's support one another and share the burden of these difficult times.
