- St. David's Episcopal Church, Roswell Georgia
Serving Roswell, Alpharetta, Milton and most of North Fulton county, St. David's Episcopal Church is a thriving parish of over 700 families located in Roswell, Georgia, approximately 20 miles north of downtown Atlanta. St. David's Episcopal Church Convenient to Roswell, Alpharetta , Milton, John's Creek, Woodstock, and North Fulton County We are a like-hearted and diverse community of faith gathered and shaped by Jesus’ abundant love. We are focused on growing deeply and serving passionately, that we might shine Christ’s light wherever God might call us. There’s a Place at the Table for Everyone Relationships Come First Love like Jesus Unity over Uniformity Tradition not Traditionalism 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. Plan your visit 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. We believe reconciliation was the primary goal of Jesus’ work. Our relationships matter and define how we pursue our mission and activity. Person-to-person connection is a gauge of vitality at every level of the organization. We do our best to love God and our neighbor, always expanding the definition of “neighbor”. We strive to love not as the world loves, but as Jesus loves: wholly, unconditionally, and sacrificially. 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.

Shepherd Ministry The Shepherd Ministry is a bridge between parishioners and pastoral care ministries at St. David’s. Every parishioner at St. David’s has a shepherd whose role is to link those facing challenges and changes with a selection of pastoral care ministries. Shepherds have extensive training in pastoral care and observe absolute confidentiality. The bridge the shepherds provide will help the parish meet the needs of everyone. As is stated in the Shepherd Ministry title, “no one walks alone.” Parishioners will have a special church “friend” to walk beside them in their life at St. David’s. Agape Meal Ministry This Pastoral Care Team prepares and delivers food to those in the Parish who are experiencing an illness, a loss, or after a baby has been born. The meal team member prepares a meal. Most often they cook the meal but other times, some do a grocery store grab-n-go. They pick up a prepared, hot, fresh meal like a rotisserie chicken or fried chicken or a sub or soup and usually some sides like a bag of salad or a Bob Evans mashed potatoes or mac & cheese. All the food is ready to go and is either warm or can be reheated in a microwave or oven. On a rare occasion a meal team member will do a restaurant run where they pick up a fresh hot meal to deliver to the parishioner. All meals (unless requested otherwise) are ready to eat right away or can be heated up a few hours later. They never send any type of restaurant gift card or Uber Eats or DoorDash gift card. They bring the meal to the parishioner's home as a touch of St. David's love. Eucharistic Visitation This ministry is led by lay people who deliver Eucharist to those who are not able to come to Church. It is a ministry of caring and compassion. Our Eucharistic Visitors are not counselors or spiritual advisors. They are a caring, baptized Christians extending the parish Eucharistic community to include everyone possible.

Gifts of Real Estate It is often possible to give your house, vacation home, condo, or farm to St. David’s while continuing to live in it. Using a Charitable Life Estate Contract, you can deed the real estate to St. David’s and retain the right to live on the property and/or receive income from the property for as long as you live. You receive an income tax deduction when the property is deeded to the church and normally avoid any capital gains taxes when making the transfer. Your inheritance and estate taxes may be reduced at the time of your death. As exciting as receiving a gift of real estate may be, St. David’s leadership will examine the advisability of accepting real estate before assuming the title. There are many factors to consider before you, or St. David's can determine whether the transfer is in the best interest of both parties. In all cases, you and St. David's will need independent legal counsel to help guide the process. Learn more about Funding Future Ministry options. Prospective donors are strongly urged to consult with their own legal, financial, and/or tax advisor regarding the tax advantages of planned giving.

- Holy Communion Class | St. David's Episcopal Church
Designed for children, St. David's Communion Class teaches the sacrament and the importance of the Holy Eucharist. Holy Communion Holy Communion Class Next Class: TBD 11:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. Downstairs in Jeffords Hall In the Episcopal tradition, all baptized persons are invited to receive communion, including children. Parents in conversation with their child determine the best time for their child to receive. Many children receive the bread as soon as they are old enough to hold it. However, some families choose to have their children wait to receive communion until the child is a bit older. St. David’s Holy Communion class is an engaging and interactive class, designed for children Kindergarten-5th grade to learn about the sacraments of Holy Baptism and the Holy Eucharist. The focus of each class is belonging. Belonging to Christ, belonging to our families, and belonging to our church family through the gift of water and God’s Holy Spirit at Baptism, and in communion, the coming together, for the shared meal of bread and wine. During the class, the children and leaders explore St. David’s campus, learning about our church home as we seek God in the Holy spaces that abound here. The children learn about Jesus’ baptism, share photos of their own baptism, and receive instruction on how to receive the communion bread and wine as they learn about the traditions of our Episcopal worship. The class meets on three designated Sundays from 11:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. downstairs in Jeffords Fellowship Hall in the Grace classroom. For more information or to register your child, please contact the Director of Children’s Ministry, Judy Hine.
- 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. Volunteers (male and female) are always welcome to join this excellent ministry. Contact Janis Harvey for more information.
