All Saints’ Episcopal Church We welcome, serve and love all unconditionally through Jesus Christ THIS WEEK AT ALL SAINTS: Yesterday, we said “see you later” to our diocesan intern, Mitchell Felton. Mitchell spent 6 months with us as he is in discernment for ordination. We are sad to see him go, but I know his many gifts and talents will be used to the glory of God in whatever capacity he is called. Mitchell wrote of his experience with us in a post on Facebook which he graciously gave me permission to quote. “We Unconditionally Welcome, Serve, and Love All Through Jesus Christ”. What a pleasure it has been interning at All Saints’ Episcopal Church the last six months and to work alongside Charles Davis in my Holy Orders discernment. Words won’t do justice for the gratitude I have for everyone there, so I hope my actions make up for it. *I am not fully ready, but I am willing* June 30th, the Third Sunday after Pentecost Holy Eucharist – Rite 2: 10:30 am 1 Kings 19:15-16,19-21 Psalm 16 Galatians 5:1,13-25 Luke 9:51-62 http://www.lectionarypage.net/YearC_RCL/Pentecost/CProp8_RCL.html#ps2 Sunday Ministries: Ushers: Clark & Lila McKean Acolyte: Howard Pierce Lector: Jane Crawford Gospel Bearer: Catherine Perry Intercessor: Morris Galloway Eucharistic Minister: Howard Pierce Counter: Lila McKean Vestry Rep: Jenks Howe Coffee Host: Julie Keadle Altar Guild: LeAnn Watson Altar Flowers are given to the glory of God by Alicia and Charles Davis in memory of their daughter, Caroline Meyer Davis.
