Beginning Sunday, Aug. 3, The Episcopal Church of the Nativity will begin offering a Sunday evening service at 5:30 p.m. each week. The service is designed to appeal to those who are looking for a church home or are wishing to supplement their church experience.
“With a combination of ‘diverse’ presentations, the church hopes to offer a place for all of those who are looking for community and fellowship,” a church spokesperson said. “With a small but very diverse congregation, the Episcopal Church of the Nativity opens its doors and its arms to all who come. And all of those who do come find peace, joy and community.”
Members of Nativity’s congregation include those who have journeyed from all walks of life.
“At Nativity, we believe that ‘diversity’ includes those from varying areas, cultures and lifestyles who all come together to celebrate God’s life for them and to accept each other’s distinctions,” the spokesperson continued. “Diversity is Divine, and the congregation of Nativity embraces that concept.”
Nativity’s mission is short and to the point:
“With God’s help, we proclaim Christ’s love, invite and embrace a diverse community, respect the dignity of every human being and serve our neighbors both near and far.”
The service on Aug. 3 includes a short service followed by a concert at the gazebo in the garden with David Ellis.
The Episcopal Church of the Nativity is at 130 Antioch Rd. (off of Ga. Hwy. 92) Fayetteville.
