Girls & Boys 10 years and older who have received First Holy Communion can become Altar Servers. Training dates available by request. Serve once a month at a Mass of your choice.

Pray for Vocation – Elijah Cup
-
The purpose of the Elijah Cup Program is to encourage families to pray for and promote vocations to the Priesthood and Religious Life. When we pray for vocations, we lift up to our Father those men and women whom He is calling to follow Him in a very special way. We are able to accommodate two families per week. A SignUpGenius is available with the following link or scan this QR code:

Help Needed!!!
Golf Cart Drivers needed.
Looking for the perfect opportunity to welcome parishioners back to Mass? Anxious to enjoy the Spring weather? Willing to demonstrate your skills as a Driver? Have I got a deal for you. The Golf Cart Ministry is looking for a few good (being politically correct) persons. The job is not difficult if you have the ability to smile and the desire to lend a hand. Wada Ya Say? OJT is available if desired. Call or text Pete at 404-597-7065 or, email me at petedarcy@att.net for details.
Golf Cart(s) needed for Easter.
Have you got a Golf Cart yearning to explore new territories? A four or six seater Cart needing some exercise? Easter Sunday places demands on the SMM Cart service that a single cart cannot handle. If you have a cart that you’re willing to lend to the Cart Committee, I will arrange pick-up and return delivery and house the cart overnight in the garage. We have safe, professional Drivers and will handle your cart as though it was ours. How can you go wrong? We might even wash it if you ask! Please let me know asap so we can avoid renting a cart or carts. Call or text Pete at 404-597-7065 or, email me at petedarcy@att.net if you can help.
Ushers needed.
Besides the Golf Cart driver, who greets you warmly as you arrive for Mass? The question is rhetorical as you already know the answer. It’s the Ushers. Did you notice that it’s the same four or five men and women at each Mass? Yup, the loss of ushers for a wide variety of reasons has left the 5, 9 and Noon Teams with minimal crews. However, this creates several golden opportunities for YOU to demonstrate your skills. The job is really easy. You’re going to be there anyway. Why not help out occasionally? We have a Retirement Plan; Medical Benefits; Vacation Plan; 401K Plan; Stock Options and On-the-Job Training. Not really….. but we do have FUN. For the 5:00 pm Saturday Mass contact Pete @ 404-597-7065 or petedarcy@att.net; for the 9:00 am and Noon Sunday Masses contact Tom Henniger @ 404-423-3386 or pghbng@charter.net OR David Keller @ 678-898-4928 or dkeller@numail.org respectively.
