  • Youth Ministry | St. David's Episcopal Church

    Spiritual growth begins with St. David's Youth Ministry. Christian education in a fun, group environment. Middle and high school can feel like a whirlwind—balancing classes, extracurriculars, friendships, family dynamics, and the many “firsts” that come with growing up: driving, dating, preparing for college. It’s a lot. At St. David’s, we aim to be a steady presence in the midst of it all. Our youth community is a safe, welcoming space where young people are encouraged to bring their whole selves—questions, doubts, hopes, and joys. Here, they’ll find acceptance, belonging, and the tools to make a real impact in the world through the transforming love of God. Together, we learn, pray, serve, laugh, and grow—building a more beloved community along the way. Youth Ministry Meet Karen Juarez, Director of Youth Ministries Karen is an active member of St. David's Church in Roswell, where she has been attending since she was in middle school. A Roswell native, she has been deeply involved in church life from a young age—participating in the youth choir, serving as an acolyte, and engaging in various parish events. Karen is excited to share her passion and experience with the next generation. She holds cherished memories of growing up at St. David's, especially attending Camp Mikell, Vacation Bible School (VBS), and decorating her trunk for Trunk or Treat. She looks forward to creating even more memories with the youth and families of the church. Outside of her church involvement, Karen is a devoted Atlanta Braves fan and enjoys cheering them on at home and at the stadium. As a bilingual member of the congregation, she attends both English and Spanish services, using her language skills to help bridge communities and foster unity within St. David’s.

  • The Way Forward | St. David's Episcopal Church

    "The Way Forward" describes the planning initiatives for St. David's. Delivering the love of Christ through the strengths of our parish defines our goal. The Way Forward Since August of 2021, St. David’s has been engaged in a discernment process which combines elements of traditional strategic planning with elements of group discernment and church leadership. Click here to read more about this journey as we name our need for discernment, discover all the possibilities, and engage our parish family as we discover God's dream for St. David's. This is an exciting time for St. David's! We ask that you keep St. David's and the Strategic Planning team in your prayers! The Way Forward Update: Draft Core Value Statements As a part of our strategic discernment process, The Way Forward, we have developed the following language to define our core values. These statements will provide important guidance to what activity we pursue as we dream alongside God about our future. The language presented is representative of responses to a values survey sent to members of our governance committees (Finance, HR, etc.), each senior warden from the last 40 years, and our four strategic discernment teams, consisting of ministry leaders, vestry members, and staff members. There’s a place at the table for everyone. At the Altar, at the conference table, sharing meals, in the classroom – everyone has a place at the table at St. David’s. We desire your participation, and we invite you to bring your whole self to the table. We’ll make sure there’s room for you there. Relationships come first. We believe reconciliation was the primary goal of Jesus’ work. In everything we do, our relationships come first. We want to ensure more person-to-person, heart-level connections through the ways we pursue our mission. Unity over uniformity. Everyone’s different; we honor that. We don’t seek to be a group of people who think alike about everything; we desire to be people who share a common heart, a common purpose, and a fellowship of love. Being together in community is more important than political affiliation, tribal identity, or which sports team you cheer for. Tradition not traditionalism. We draw nourishment and stability from our deep roots in ancient traditions, without sacrificing flexibility. We aren’t a museum for church traditions but participants in a living faith, anchored by practices that have been honored since the time of Jesus' first followers. While still in draft form, we welcome your feedback. Please reach out to Remington with any questions or comments.

  • Weddings | St. David's Episcopal Church

    Members and their families can have their wedding at St. David's. Marriage It is a great joy to know that you desire to have a wedding ceremony at St. David’s Church, and we want to assist in making that desire a reality. At St. David's, we believe that committed relationships visibly reflect God's inner, spiritual love. Our mission is to support couples and make God's love more visible in our community. It is the responsibility of the clergy, Wedding Guild, Flower Guild, and Organist to assist you and ensure that your day is special and spiritually meaningful. The first step in the marriage process is completing the Request for Marriage Form from below. A priest will follow up with you. Onsite Weddings are reserved for members of St. David's who are in good standing. St. David's Clergy are available for pre-martial counseling and off-site weddings on a case-by-case basis. You can also download the St. David's Wedding Handbook to help guide your planning. The form will take about 5 minutes. Remarriage Petitions If you are widowed or divorced, a Remarriage Petition must be completed and filed. All Remarriage Petitions must be submitted electronically at least 45 days prior to the proposed wedding date. The petition(s) must have the signature of the officiating priest. Be aware that the Bishop may request to review the original documents during the approval process. A petition must be filed for any person for whom a previous marriage was dissolved by civil authority. A petition must also be filed if the petitioner is no longer married due to the death of the spouse. When each person in the proposed marriage is divorced or widowed, a separate and complete petition must be filed for each person. Copies of the final divorce decree or death certificate must be attached to the petition. For a second marriage, the bishop requires a waiting period of one year from the date of the final decree. The date and place of the proposed marriage may not be publicly announced until the bishop’s consent has been received. The Wedding Guild The Wedding Guild is present at all rehearsals and weddings. We work in teams of three or four to assist the priest, the bride and groom, and the wedding party. Soon after the wedding date is set, we meet with the bride and groom and the bride’s mother (or other special person) to discuss wedding plans in detail, answer questions, and get to know the people that we will be helping on the special day. From that meeting onward, we are available to provide advice on wedding logistics. At the rehearsal, we assist the priest in choreographing the wedding ceremony. We rehearse the ushers, attendants, readers, and all moving parts of the wedding. On the day of the wedding, we calm the nervous, cheer the melancholy, keep the groomsmen focused, help with inevitable clothing/hair/makeup issues, deal with the photographer, and serve as timekeepers to ensure that the wedding party is on schedule. We have an updated Wedding Handbook, a comprehensive planning guide to assist the bride and groom. The booklet is available online, through the church website for the thoroughly modern bride-to-be. We are currently seeking two volunteers to lead the Wedding Guild. Additional volunteers (male and female) are always welcome to join this excellent ministry.
