Women's Bible Study Returns
Joanna Adams' First Wednesday Women's Bible Study resumes September 3 at 9:15 a.m., beginning a year-long enjoyment of her favorite gospel, Luke. Women from the community, members and friends, neighbors and visitors are invited for coffee, pastries and a journey that will leave you, like Mary, exclaiming,  “My soul magnifies the Lord!” (1:46) Come at 9 a.m. for refreshments. Childcare is provided.

Gathering of the Guys
The Men of Morningside are back! The fall kick-off of Theology on Tap will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 2 at 7 p.m.  Hosting the event will be Van Crisco, 466 Seminole Avenue, Atlanta 30307. After dinner, the discussion will center on "The Rise of Atheism in America: Christian Responses." RSVP to Chris by Thursday, August 28, christopher.andrew.henry@gmail.com.  Whether you're a regular attendee or a new member, we welcome all Men of Morningside to join us for good food and lively discussion.

Young Vocalists Wanted
Children's Choir kicks off Wednesday, September 3 with a 6 p.m. pizza party and practice in the Fellowship Hall. Meet new director Brittney Jaynes. RSVP to Tara Parrish at taraparrish@bellsouth.net or 404.872.7924.

Do You Like Kids?
If so, you'll love the energetic and interested crowd of children here at Morningside. Volunteers to help in Christian education of these youngsters come from long-time members and new congregants as well. We now have openings in all age groups: infants, toddler/two's, pre-K and K-2nd. Contact Melinda Sandkam as soon as possible if you'd like to help in this important work. Thank you.

Congratulations!
