Join us for worship at 10AM on Pentecost Sunday, May 24, at Bugby Plantation: 2090 Bugby Plantation Rd. Wadmalaw Island, SC 29487.

We are grateful and excited to have this offsite worship at the home of the Sosnowskis who have once again offered the space to make up for being rained out last year. This will be an outdoor service, so please bring a chair and dress appropriately. Sunglasses and hats are welcome. Transport from parking to the service area will be avaiable. We will not have nursery or children’s Sunday school. And pray for good weather!

We invite you to notify the church office if you or a family member are graduating from high school or college this year so we can recognize and celebrate your achievement.

Please email the name, graduating school/college and future plans to Sally Dixon by June 1st.

If you are one of these graduates, please join us for worship on Sunday, June 7th, to be recognized and blessed.

Over the last two weeks a small search committee of Fr. Jeremy, Lynn Gervais, Rob Schluter, Heath Gunther, and Nathan Gilkeson have been reading resumes and conducting interviews via Zoom. We have three very qualified and capable candidates. The prayer now is that the Lord makes clear His calling upon one of them. We are hopeful and expectant to announce a new Associate Rector within the next two weeks.

We are looking to hire these staff positions: Youth Ministry Intern, and paid part-time Nursery attendant. If you or someone you know are interested, click the link below for more information.

Did you know the Daughters of the Holy Cross have a prayer box available for anyone to put prayer requests in? They are some of our most fervent prayer warriors and will pray for any request put in this prayer box, regardless of how major or minor. Feel free to drop a prayer request in the prayer box in the Connection Corridor on Sunday. All requests are kept confidential.

The annual Anglican Diocese of South Carolina's Night at the RiverDogs will take place this year on Friday, June 5th. The game begins at 7:05 pm. Join us for an evening of fun, hot dogs, cheering, and laughter. We’ll also enjoy a lighthearted competition to see which church brings the largest group. Don’t forget to wear red or white to show you’re part of the ADOSC family!

We will wrap up the Sunday School year by revisiting some of our favorite Bible stories — from the parable of the Prodigal Son to Zacchaeus.  We will meet Jesus in each of these stories and learn that Jesus loves us very much! 

The Altar Guild works behind the scenes to maintain and enhance our sacred places and to help increase our parish family’s awareness of God. Currently, they prepare the altar area for all services. The Altar Guild welcomes new volunteers in a variety of capacities. If you are interested in helping to bless our church family, please contact Linda Hihn, Debbie Hawkins or the Church office. 

The flowers are given to the glory of God
and in loving memory of
Mr. & Mrs. Benjamin R. Jenkins Sr.
and Carol Jenkins Hardman
by Jane Herlong.

Dear Heavenly Father,

Together we are united with the saints of the household of God; built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Jesus Christ himself being the cornerstone. In Christ alone our church is being joined together, and is growing into a holy temple of the Lord by the Spirit. By Your wisdom may we discern what You want us to build; Through Jesus Christ our Lord and the power of the Holy Spirit,

Amen.
