Parish Life
Relationships are at the heart of our spiritual home.
We celebrate special occasions with church-wide events where we can connect with old friends and meet new ones.
Fellowship and Fun
We love to get together for food and fun. Throughout the year, we host intergenerational events and smaller gatherings for specific groups to encourage deeper connections with one another.
Some annual favorites include Parish Days to start and end the program year, Trunk or Treat, the Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper, Sunday Fundays in the summer, and more!
To learn more about Parish Life, contact Kathryn Saunders.
For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.

Allen Pruitt
Prior to joining us, Allen served for 11 years as rector of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in LaGrange, Georgia. Along with that parish work, he served as a convocational dean, on the Commission on Ministry for the Diocese of Atlanta, and on the faculty for “Learning to Lead,” the diocesan class for clergy in new positions. Teaching, vocational discernment, and learning alongside others are important to his work.
Writing is a passion of Allen's, whether for sermons, articles, or the short novel he's been trying to finish for a few years. He also loves listening to all kinds of music, and like just about everyone on the planet, "Ted Lasso" has become a favorite show. He is a big fan of Liverpool Football Club in the English Premier League and is excited about Charlotte's very own MLS team! Allen and his wife, Casey, have two girls, Abby Grace (16) and Ila (12). As a family they love to travel, and have enjoyed trips to Italy, Ukraine, the Grand Canyon, Northern California, and England. Casey and Allen both like to cook, but perhaps most enjoy hiking and sitting by our favorite north Georgia creek.
