revised November 2025
Agape Meal Teams are on a 5 week rotation to host the Sunday lunches. Your team leaders can add you to the GroupMe chat so you can help plan the menu for your upcoming hosting date and also sign up for what you can contribute. Your contribution is based on what is "do-able" for you and your family. Remember everyone is in a different situation but when we pull together as a team, it turns out beautiful. You can cook or buy food, donate money, and/or help set up and clean up. Don't underestimate the value of labor! The teams are big enough that if some of you are not there on your hosting day, it will be okay, and you can cover a different week when others may be away. Each team will also be given a "bi-week" where you will be responsible only for coffee and sweets and not a full lunch.
We updated and rearranged the teams on Nov 2 to make them more balanced. Please see the list below. If you are not on a team but want to be, please let Presvytera know (706-340-6366). Similarly, if you are on a team but it is not working out for you, contact Presvytera to be removed.
Everyone is welcome to join us for the meals and fellowship each and every Sunday - whether you are on a team or not!

* Making the Coffee (only if you want to)
-
- Fill the percolator with water to the desired level based on attendance (see line markings for 25 cups, 35 cups, 45 cups, 55 cups).
- Measure the Coffee - Use 1 brew bag per 10 cups of water (no filter is necessary if you use the bags).
- Set up the Percolator - Place the brew basket and stem in the percolator, secure the lid and put it out on the wooden pedestal. DON'T PLUG IT IN YET
- WAIT UNTIL 10:30 TO PLUG IN PERCULATOR. It takes 40-50 minutes for the coffee to brew so plan to plug it in around 10:30 AM
- Ask a "CHRSP" (Coffee Hour Support Person) to help you: Sarah, Presvytera, Alan, Georgette, Maddy, Tim
- WATCH THIS VIDEO TO MAKE COFFEE IN THE URN
