Fellowship
All Parish Breakfasts
Several times a year we gather for breakfast during our normal formation time (9:15-10:15). These breakfast allow us to catch up with each other and sometimes we do a Bible study.
E.C.O. (Episcopalians Celebrate Outdoors)
During the warm months we gather at home and parks on the waters of our area for kayaking, a potluck dinner and a brief Evening Prayer service.
Oyster Roast
In the fall we gather to share oysters and other delights. Our proceeds provide support for our youth to go to church related events
Pig Roast
In June we often have a pig roast. It is a great time.
Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday
The night before Ash Wednesday we gather to eat pancakes and to have a festive time. We hold a silent auction which produces about $3,000 for our outreach ministries.
The Amazing Grace Race
The first annual Amazing Grace race took place in May 2021. Abingdon Episcopal and Apostles Lutheran joined together to create a fun fellowship event to celebrate the spring!
Teams of two or more raced around Gloucester County, finding clues, solving puzzles and participating in service projects. We designed and gave flower bouquets to the residents at Sanders Assisted Living, sorted canned food at Bread for Life and collected money for Bread for Life. Other activities included a scavenger hunt using artwork on Main Street and campfire-building skills.
Nine teams and fourteen volunteers from both churches helped to make this event one of the most fun of the year! Join us next time!
