Immanuel community–come one, come all! Let’s eat pancakes together! Shrove Tuesday is a traditional pre-Lent celebration where people use up their butter, eggs, and flour in preparation for fasting.

Historically, on the eve of Lent, church bells would ring out, people would come to church to confess sins and receive forgiveness, and pancakes would be had by all! At Immanuel, we are excited to carry the tradition by feasting together on pancakes, turkey sausage, and fruit.

You can sign up to volunteer HERE.

Registration has been closed.** If you are unable to register and would still like to attend, please email karen@immanuelatl.org.

At Immanuel, our mission is expressed through intentional partnerships. In line with our vision of being faithful neighbors, we’ve developed a partnership framework that focuses on resourcing and supporting those already doing good work, primarily in our own community. While we may not have the scale to launch independent ministries, we are rich in relational and holistic resources. Our conviction is that by partnering with these organizations, we can make a meaningful and long-lasting impact.

Our Partner Champions are key individuals who serve as liaisons between Immanuel and our partner organizations. They help our community understand both the spiritual and material needs of our partners and build networks of support. If you're interested in leadership opportunities, connecting with our current and former champions is a great way to start. You’ll have the chance to observe, learn, and grow in your own faith journey.

Join us for this Lunch-and-Learn to explore how you can get involved and take the next step in leadership.
