St Augustine’s recognizes that a sense of community is vital to the health of the church. We offer several opportunities for fellowship with smaller groups throughout the year in hopes that individuals will feel more connected to the great community.
Social gatherings
Newcomers event Gathering
Every year, the St. Augustine’s board and staff host a new-ish gathering for individuals who are new to the chapel in the past year. Individuals who complete an information form in the bulletin at Sunday services are invited.
If you would like to come to the next new-ish gathering, email Susan Ferguson at susan@staugustineschapel.org.
Cottage Dinners
Looking to connect, or to reconnect, with other St. A’s folks? Cottage Dinners are a great way! Folks gather monthly in groups of 10-16 people to share a meal and fellowship. Groups meet in each other's homes for potluck, at restaurants, movies or concerts, picnics, and Sunday brunches. There will be groups for young adults, families with children, folks age 40+, and intergenerational groups [if we get enough people to fill up all those].
