Outreach
Church of the Common Ground
The Church of the Common Ground is a worshiping community of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta, a “church without walls” on the streets of Atlanta. We have volunteers who make and deliver sandwiches for Church of the Common Ground. Most volunteers make and/or deliver about once a month, but the schedule is flexible. https://www.churchofthecommonground.org
Candy Crawl!
A few days before Halloween, families gather for a fun, candy-filled event in Virginia Highland's shopping district. Costumed kids can stop by participating businesses who give out candy to eager trick-or-treaters. Church of Our Saviour participates each year.
Intown Collaborative Ministries
Our association with Intown Cares allows us to refer people in need of food and housing to this amazing organisation. Intown not only has a food pantry, but also actively engages our differently housed neighbours to help them find safe, permanent places to live.

The Little Pantry
Our newest ministry is the Little Pantry. Located on Los Angeles Avenue, the Little Pantry is an easy way for neighbors to help neighbors who need food, hygiene, or paper items. They are a 24/7, zero-barrier access point to food and other necessities. Donations can be left in the labeled basket at the back of the nave, or brought to the church office. Click here for a list of suggested items.
Summerfest and Porchfest
Each summer, parishioners at Church of Our Saviour give out free cold lemonade, water, lip balms, and dog treats to the passers-by on their way to these festivals. We have a great time and show Virginia Highlands that we are good neighbours!
Pride for Parents Toy Drive and
Winter Coat Drive
In December, Church of Our Saviour collects new, unwrapped toys for families who need a little help at Christmas time, and we collect gently used/new coats for those in need. Toys and coats may be dropped off November-December during office hours (Monday-Thursday, 9 am to 1 pm).
The Little Library
Drop off unwanted books in good condition or select a new-to-you book to take home!
