prayerofconfession merciful God, as our good shepherd you lead us in paths
of righteousness for your name’s sake. and yet the paths of temptation are constantly open to us. We confess that are often drawn to ways and choices that that seem good, but lead us away from you. We ask you to forgive our poor choices and our weak resolve. more than that we ask for the grace that guards us from dead-end paths and the way of destruction. Guide our steps, and direct us as we seek to follow your Son Jesus – the way, the truth, the life. Hear us now as we offer our silent prayers of confession…

Transitioning into parenthood brings a mixture of emotion: excitement, hope, anxiety, and uncertainty. There are numerous unknowns that come with your bundle of joy, and research shows that this life stage transition is one of the most difficult you will face in your marriage.
Join Mazi Robinson to learn the tools parents can use to continue building their marital bond as they navigate this new role. Using research- based material, she will discuss what to expect after starting your family, how to recognize and surmount those marriage and parenting stumbling blocks, and the impact of relationship quality on parenting. Expectant parents up to parents of early elementary age children won’t want to miss this seminar!

Hi, my name is John, and I’m 8-years-old. I love coming to Peachtree and participating in KidJam with my friends. However, I have some developmental challenges and need a teen or adult buddy to help me participate. If you could join me or one of my friends who needs a buddy two or more Sundays per month during the 8:45 or 10:00 sessions, please contact Jan Williamson at [email protected] or 404-842-2188. Thank you.
Elementary small group leaders, preschool teachers, nursery nurturers, and greeters are also needed. If you are a teen or adult who has faith in
Jesus Christ and a desire to lead our children, please contact Jan Williamson at [email protected] for more information or to apply. See God in the lives of our children, and feel God change your life.
