Adult Forum Celebrates Merger Anniversary of Two Parishes
Thursday, April 19, 2018
Otey Parish welcomes the community this Sunday to celebrate 50 years after St. Mark’s Parish merged with Otey Memorial Parish. At 10 a.m., in St. Mark’s Parish Hall, Otey rector Rob Lamborn will speak about the history of St. Mark’s. Lamborn will be using commentary from Matilda Dunn’s thesis on the merger of the two parishes and the work of the Katie Bradshaw and Sara Milford in creating the video “Can I Get a Witness? Documenting, Preserving, and Sharing the History of the St. Mark’s Community.” Visitors are encouraged to share stories at this time.
There will be an 11 a.m. Worship and Holy Eucharist followed by a noon reception/coffee hour at St. Mark’s Parish Hall.
Come celebrate and share memories of the impact on our community of the St. Mark’s families: Taylor, Staten, Hill, Winton, Kennerly, Childress, Beasley, Shedd, Turner, Patton, Tate, Burnett and many more.
