SUNDAY, AUGUST 20 AND 27

Old Fashioned Sunday School

Child Hall, 10:10 a.m., led by John Beane

Come sing a hymn or two in Old Fashioned Sunday School. We will also discuss the history of hymnody in the Christian Church in general. Are hymns mentioned in the Bible? What was early hymnody like and how has it developed over the centuries? What is “sacred harp” or “shape note” singing? We’ll also zero in on hymnody in the Church of England and the Episcopal Church in particular. Did you know that the singing of hymns in the Church of England was only sanctioned in 1820, after the parishioners of a church in Sheffield, England, took their parish priest to court when he tried to introduce hymns into Sunday worship? We’ll talk about differences between our Episcopal The Hymnal 1940 and its successor, The Hymnal 1982, as well as review some of the conclusions of the 2012 Hymnal Revision Feasibility Study. As time permits, we’ll learn stories and facts about some of your favorite hymns, including amazing facts about “Amazing Grace”.

Living Faith: Discovering Spiritual Growth with the Enneagram

Room 239, 10:10 a.m.

The Enneagram is an insightful, spiritual personality-typing system that offers another lens into Christian teachings and is a helpful resource for spiritual growth. Join Canons Holder, Mitchener, and Zappa as we explore what it means to live out our faith through conversation with scripture and tradition, contemporary books, and, most important, one another. All are welcome!

New Book Study In September

Thursday Evening Book Study with Canon Julia Mitchener

Starting Thursday, September 14

Tracy Kidder’s 2023 New York Times Bestseller Rough Sleepers tells the story of a doctor who founded a medical practice for the homeless citizens of Boston. Kidder’s writing is compelling and highly narrative. Her sharing of the complex issues that have created our nation’s affordable housing crisis and the personal stories of those most impacted challenges and inspires readers to greater personal engagement.

The Rev. Canon Julia Mitchener will lead a four week study of Rough Sleepers on Thursday evenings at 6 p.m. beginning on September 14. Join us in the Cathedral Bookstore for light bites, fellowship, and good conversation about things that matter.

For more information, or to sign up, please contact Canon Mitchener at julia.mitchener@cathedralATL.org.

OLD FASHIONED SUNDAY SCHOOL THIS FALL Being With: The Road to Reconciliation

Begins Sunday, September 17

Child Hall, 10:10 a.m.

In May of this year, Dr. Vivek Murthy, the United States Surgeon General, issued an Advisory calling attention to the public health crisis of loneliness, isolation, and lack of connection in our country. The Rev. Samuel Wells, Vicar of St. Martins-in-the-Fields in central London, has argued that the first step we might take in dealing with this predicament is to change the way we think about God from one who works for us to one who wants to be with us.

Canon George Maxwell will lead a discussion that looks more deeply at Murthy’s diagnosis and the healing remedy that Wells prescribes.

Murthy discusses his warnings about isolation, loneliness, and lack of connection in his book Together: The Healing Power of Human Connection in a Sometimes Lonely World (NY: Harper Wave, 2020). Wells introduces many of his ideas about being with in his book Humbler Faith, Bigger God: Finding a Story to Live By (Eerdmans: Grand Rapids, MI, 2022). Copies of both books may be purchased in the Cathedral Bookstore.

Being With: An Exploration Of Christian Life and Faith

Begins Thursday, September 21

6 p.m.–7:30 p.m.

Canon George Maxwell and Mary Hunter Maxwell will lead a small group of between six to fourteen people in a ten-week course that follows a curriculum called Being With: A Course Exploring Christian Faith and Life (2022) that was developed by Sam Wells and Sally Hitchiner. The course will begin on Thursday, September 21 at 6 p.m. and meet weekly thereafter. Each meeting will be in person and will last for 90 minutes. The course will follow a format that is designed to explore in more depth some of the concepts that will be discussed in Old Fashioned Sunday School on Sunday mornings. Please send an email to Canon Maxwell at gmaxwell@ cathedralATL.org, if you are interested in participating.

Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. for the silent auction, and the show will begin at 7:30 p.m. All proceeds from the evening will go to fund the choir's next pilgrimage to England in 2024 to St. Paul’s Cathedral, London, and York Minster. Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you there!
