St. James' Episcopal Church - 20's and 30's Group

St. James’ 20s30s group welcomes twenty- and thirty-somethings who are single, couples, married, and with or without children.

Twice a year we get together for good food and fellowship at one of our houses. Our next potluck will be at Joseph and Suzanne Hobby-Shippen’s house on Friday, April 4th at 7p.m. All are invited!

20s30s Sunday Class

During Lent we do not have a specifically 20s30s class, but on most Sundays we have a 20s30s class in room 143. On August 5th we kicked off the year by reading and discussing Bishop Alexander’s book, This Far By Grace during August. In September we studied the Genesis story of Joseph. On October 7th we began a class entitled Good News in the News in which we discussed the connections between news stories from the previous week and Scripture and our faith. During the Epiphany Season we had a 20s30s parenting class. During the Easter season we will have a 20s30s couples class. Please join us!

Happy Hour at MacCracken’s

We meet the first Friday of every month at 8 p.m. at Johnnie MacCracken's Celtic Firehouse Irish Pub, located on the square at 15 Atlanta St. Make some new friends! For more information about this and other 20s30s activities, email the Rev. Joseph Shippen at joseph.shippen@stjamesmarietta.com.

Students, professors, and staff at Kennesaw State: We meet for Holy Eucharist each Tuesday at 12:30 in room 227 of the University College Building and on the third Wednesday of the month at the same time and place. Also, about once a month we get together at 7:00 p.m. for dinner and other activities, such as bowling and put put.
