Stop letting the peanut gallery dictate your worth.

We got a little behind this week and didn’t post Sunday’s sermon on schedule, but this message is well worth the wait. Here is our own Carla speaking on the Gospel of Matthew, sharing her personal experiences with being labeled, and reminding us why God's opinion is the only one that truly defines us.

It is a grounded, powerful reminder to let the critics' words roll right off your back.

Moments like these matter.
This week, participants at The Friendship Center, Inc. took a field trip to the Atlanta Botanical Garden to experience the lights, laughter, and joy of being together in community.

Thank you to everyone who helped make it possible.

Thanks for the pics, Roy Eugene Coker

A couple of volunteers were out this weekend repainting the parking lot stripes. It might seem small, but clear lines make a big difference here at Holy Comforter. Our Friendship Center vans come and go all week, bringing participants to programs. Volunteers and partners drop off food and groceries daily. People arrive here looking for support, connection, and welcome.

Fresh, visible stripes help everyone get in safely and find their way. It is one more simple way we try to keep our campus open, accessible, and genuinely welcoming to all.

Some of the most meaningful ministry happens around a shared table.

Every Sunday and Wednesday, our shared meals bring people together for nouriment, conversation, and connection.

It is one of the most beautiful ministries we offer, and we need partners to help keep it going.

We’re looking for groups who can provide lunch on upcoming Sundays. We especially need a meal provider for December 28, and we are also scheduling groups for many 2026 dates. If your group wants to serve in a meaningful, hands-on way, this is a wonderful opportunity.

You can contact our parish office with any questions. And when you join us, we hope you stay for worship. New faces bring new joy, and chances are good that Jesus will meet you here.

A special thank you to St. Martin in the Fields Episcopal Church - Atlanta, GA for providing lunch this Sunday. We are grateful for you!
