Epiphany Young Adults
The Epiphany Young Adults is a vibrant and welcoming community for people in their 20s and 30s. Once a month, we gather for dinner, a shared activity, and Compline. Past events have included Jams with Julie, where we learned about music at Epiphany from our choir director, a Christmas cookie bake-off, and Grace and Guacamole with our rector. Many of our young adults also gather weekly for trivia in Decatur—on Tuesdays during the school year and Wednesdays in the summer. (See group listed below). Young adults are deeply involved in the life of Epiphany. You’ll find young adults on the vestry, singing in the choir, serving at the altar, and participating in many of the parish’s ministries. On most Sundays, there’s a pew full of young adults—and visitors are always welcome to join us.
Edie Brush and Jacob Geiger, Coordinators
Theologically Sound Trivia Team
Come flex your noodle with Epiphany’s own trivia team, Theologically Sound! We play trivia
on Tuesdays during the school year at Wild Haven, and on Wednesday during the summer at Universal Joint. We try to arrive around 6:45 p.m. so we can ensure we get a table. Come join us for dinner, fellowship, and some friendly competition.
Edie Brush and Jacob Geiger, Coordinators
Fireside Sit & Sip
The Fireside Sit & Sip group is for women primarily in their 40s, 50s, and 60s to come together just as you are. We meet monthly on the first Tuesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. in our lovely courtyard, weather permitting. Bring a camp chair and join us around the fire pit in the courtyard to sit, sip, and enjoy conversation. Sign up to bring drinks or snacks at epiphany.org/rsvp.

Episcopal Church Women
Episcopal Church Women (ECW) meet 2nd Tuesdays during the school year. They gather for a program at 10:30 a.m. and then have lunch out afterwards. The ECW sponsor various fund-raisers to support charitable endeavors.

Men’s Breakfast Group
If you’re a fellow who’s an early riser, perhaps knowing that a Men’s Breakfast Group meets after the Tuesday 7:00 a.m. service will encourage your involvement with this group of great guys.
Dave Thomas, Coordinator
Men’s Fellowship Dinners Group
The Epiphany Men’s Fellowship Dinners (EMFD) group meet often to share a meal. No agenda—just a gathering to prepare a meal and enjoy conversation. Cost, including drinks, runs $30 per person.
Brian Wright and Joel Fowler, Coordinators
Munch Bunch
Give yourself a mid-week-treat and join friends and friends-to-be for lunch at 1:00 p.m. every Wednesday at the Thinking Man Tavern on Howard Avenue in Decatur. No agenda. No reservation needed. Just fun.

This social advocacy group promotes social and cultural change. The group identifies community events in which we can participate, and provides a curated list of local community happenings via Realm Groups. If you’d like to be part of this group, join via Realm Groups to view current opportunities of social justice action in our area.
