St. Tabitha Daughters of The King (DOK) Chapter will be holding their monthly meeting on Sunday May 10th. 

We are meeting in the Taylor Room at 12:30 pm for fellowship, followed by our meeting from 1-3 pm. 

If you are interested in attending and/or have questions about the DOK please contact Patricia Grant at patriciasuegrant@gmail.com.

 Our spring luncheon will be held Tuesday, May 12th, at noon in the Hightower Room at Canterbury Court, 3750 Peachtree Rd, Atlanta.

Come to the far entrance at “valet parking.” No program this month, just fellowship and fun! 

Maybe some ideas for next year’s programs.

Please make a reservation with Margaret Jones.

PARISH PICNIC!!!!  

Parish Life invites you, your family and friends as well as visitors at St. Barts to our Parish Picnic on Pentecost Sunday, May 24th following the 10:30 am service. 

Parish Life will provide a big cake for everyone to share as well as punch and other beverages. 

We encourage you to bring your blankets, tables and chairs, and picnic lunches with enough to share with others, as we enjoy the beautiful gardens and all of the church campus. 

We look forward to breaking bread with you on this special Sunday!!

The diocesan service of confirmation (and reception and reaffirmation) is 4 p.m. on Sunday, May 31st at the Cathedral of St. Philip.  

If you or your child will participate, please confirm by responding to the Parish Administrator with your or your child's name the way you would like for it to appear on the certificate. 

We will communicate more about the service as it approaches. At this point, I will say that you need plan to be at the Cathedral at least 30 minutes before the service begins. Because these are diocesans services, they are very well attended and parking can be a challenge. 

Looking forward to this service!!

Peace,

Mark+

SAVE THE DATE!!!!!  

St. Barts Parish Weekend September 11–13, 2026. 

Further details are coming soon.

Mimi’s Pantry is a supportive resource within the Atlanta University Center (AUC) that helps students who do not have a full meal plan access the food they need with dignity and ease. Students can choose nonperishable, fresh and frozen food items as often as needed. 

The main pantry is located on the campus of Clark Atlanta University in the Lowery Institute office. 

Smaller service organizations and churches are requested to contribute gift cards, which are utilized to purchase food items from vendors during promotional periods or when corporate donations do not meet the demand for essential goods. 

How to give: 

• If you would like to purchase gift cards, you can leave them in Dec. Florence’s cubby in the copy room. 
• You can also give via Realm by choosing “Mimi’s Pantry" from the giving drop down list or write a check, including Mimi’s Pantry in the memo line, and place it in the offering plate.

Are you curious about the preparation for the services? Our ministry revolves around the care of eucharistic vessels, linens, and preparing the nave for all services. Whether you are a life-long Episcopalian or new to the church, the altar guild is a wonderful way to learn more about our faith and liturgy. 

If you would like to learn more, please contact David Watkins at davidw48@comcast.net.

We’re excited to invite you to take part in a living expression of our shared faith, gifts, and service. 

The Stewardship Tree is an interactive display that grows leaf by leaf as we name the many ways we give of ourselves to our church and the world. 

Each leaf represents a beloved member of our community and the unique ways they offer their time, energy, and care.

Here’s how it works: 

Simply write your name on one side of a leaf and list the ministries, activities, or acts of service you’re part of on the other.

As the weeks go by, our tree will grow with the richness of our collective offerings. Whether you serve on a ministry, bring snacks for coffee hour, volunteer at the food bank, offer prayers at home, or even bring your compost to the garden—every act of love counts. Let’s fill the branches

with gratitude, presence, and joy. Every leaf is a testament to how we embody the heart of St. Bart’s. 

Come add your leaf!

You can fulfill your pledge in three ways:

• Online: through onrealm.org

• By Check or Cash: mailed or brought to the church

• By Check mailed to: St. Bartholomew’s Episcopal Church,

2897 N Druid Hills Rd, #508, Atlanta, GA 30329

Thank you for your generosity and commitment to the life and mission of St. Batrholomew’s.

Please fill out a pledge card (found in the inner narthex).
