Powhatan Day of Mission

by Church Staff

Did you know Manakin and St. Luke’s are the only Episcopal churches in Powhatan County? We want to help more people get to know us, and what better way to do so then living into our missions and serving our communities.

We are having a Day of Mission on Saturday, November 6. On that day, people of all ages from both congregations have the opportunity to participate in one of three ways:

  • Gathering produce at Shalom Farms for those in need
  • Filling backpacks with food for children in need
  • Helping customers “shop” at the Powhatan Food Pantry

This is a great opportunity to help the community and for us to get to know the congregants from St. Luke’s.

Those interested in participating should meet at St. Luke’s at 8:00 a.m. for coffee, muffins, prayers, and distribution of tasks. We will then go to our job sites, where we plan to volunteer from 9:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. After, participants are invited back to Manakin for lunch at conversation from 12:30 – 1:00 p.m.

To take part in our Day of Mission, sign up in Denny Hall or contact the Church Office (office@manakin.org).
