UPCOMING EVENTS

Centennial Celebration Sunday is February 21. Reverend Dan Nail will be the guest preacher at both services. Lunch will be served after the 11:00 service.

Youth Sunday is February 7. The youth will lead both services, with special music and prayers.

Sunday, February 7 is Souper Bowl Sunday. On
this day, the youth will collect donations after both services for the food bank. In 2009, 13,000+ youth groups raised more than $10 million to help feed the hungry in their communities!
Join us as we do our part to help stamp out hunger in Athens – every member is asked to donate at least $1 as they leave worship that day.
