Never been to a youth ministry event at Holy Spirit? No worries - you are most welcome! Bring your friends, and be sure to RSVP online so we will know how much food to prepare.

The Sandy Springs and Dunwoody Community Assistance Center (CAC) provides food to help many of the 9,500 individuals in Sandy Springs and Dunwoody needing CAC support having financially difficult times to feed themselves and prevent homelessness.

During last January’s and June’s CAC Food Drive, HSCC parishioners donated over 3,000 lbs of food! Our next commitment to support CAC is January 1 - 31. Donation locations also providing the list of food items needed will be in the (1) Narthex, (2) entrance area to St. Mary’s Chapel and (3) entrance area to HSP Preschool. Thank you, in advance, for your kindness and desire to help those in need. 

Parish drivers are welcome, even for one pick up in January and/or June each year. Contact Kate Cotterman, Director of Volunteers, kallen@hsccatl.com to sign up as a driver.

We are now enrolling for the Easter 2026 session of our Order of Christian Initiation (OCIA) program which will begin on Sunday, January 4, and conclude on Sunday, May 17, with reception into full communion with the Roman Catholic Church at the Easter Vigil Mass on Saturday, April 4. The class meets on Sunday mornings in the parish office building from 10:00 AM - 11:15 AM, with Mass offered either before or after at 8:30 AM or 11:30 AM. The class will not meet on MLK, Easter, or Mother’s Day weekends. A nominal fee of $35 is required to register for the course; this fee helps offset the costs of books and other materials.

Because acceptance into the program requires pastoral approval, prospective OCIA participants should begin gathering sacramental documents now, including, if applicable, certificates of baptism and marriage. Remote and in-person interviews with participants are now being held; please e-mail Dr. David King to arrange registration. The deadline for registration is TODAY Sunday, December 14.
