BLESSING OF THE BACKPACKS!
John Mark Parker, from St. Francis Episcopal
Church in Macon shared with us their
Blessing of the Backpacks Sunday. John
Mark created the Litany from a variety of
sources, which include other church services,
the Book of Common Prayer and a book of
prayers for children by Marian Wright Edelman. Click HERE for a copy of the Litany he wrote.
NEW ONLINE CONNECTION!
In July 2008, we have opened up the library catalog to online visitors. By clicking the ONLINE LIBRARY button on the left of the Resource Center pages, you can search the library for title, author, or keyword to find books, DVDs, curricula and videos. Not everything is on there yet but most things are.
Items may be checked out to clergy and layleaders in the Diocese of Atlanta. To check an item out or if you don't find what you are looking for please contact the Resource Center coordinator, at Lscott@episcopalatlanta.org or call Linda at 404-601-5353 or 800-537-6743 x 155.
What is the Episcopal Resource Center?
The Episcopal Resource Center is an integral part of the ministry of the Diocese of Atlanta. Contributing to the ongoing growth and development of the church, it is an intentional effort by the Diocese to provide a center for resources consistent with Episcopal theology and teaching. It is funded by annual parish commitments to the diocesan budget, and services are provided to all parishes, missions, and Episcopal institutions within the Diocese of Atlanta. Clergy and lay leaders in these parishes and institutions may borrow materials from the Resource Center at no charge. The only charges are for mailing materials back to the Center, late fees, or replacement of lost or damaged items.
Where and When Can I Come?
The Resource Center is located in the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta offices on the grounds of the Cathedral of St. Philip in Atlanta, Georgia. The hours are 9:00am to 5:00pm, Monday through Thursday, 9:00am to 4:00pm, Friday. We are closed on holidays. The Resource Center Coordinator is Linda Scott and she will be glad to help you with materials anytime you visit. Calling ahead to make an appointment insures her full attention to your needs, but is not necessary if you need to ‘just drop in.' Materials may also be requested by calling, emailing or faxing in your requests to the numbers or email address below.
