We welcome, serve and love all unconditionally through Jesus Christ THIS WEEK AT ALL SAINTS: From the Rector: This Saturday, February 23rd is the Oyster Roast! Tickets are 35$ each for adults. All are welcome and encouraged to bring friends. We have sold quite a few tickets, but it is still possible to call (864-833-1388) or email (rector@allsaintsclinton.org) if you want more. They can be reserved and paid for at the door. A sign-up sheet is available to help in any way as many hands are needed to make this event a great success. This Sunday we continue with our Adult Formation class at 9:30 am. We are reading Glorious Companions: Five Centuries of Anglican Spirituality by Richard Schmidt. This week we are led by Neal Prater discussing the chapter on George Herbert. Please join us! Coming in early March, with the help of Mitchell Felton, we will be offering a class entitled “Be the Bridge – The Bridge to Racial Unity”. To jumpstart this program, the first endeavor will be a group discussion class of no more than 8-10 people that will focus on foundational principles that every white bridge builder needs to understand. This helps white individuals understand that the very work of racial reconciliation within our church begins with quiet self-reflection and learning. If you are interested in participating in this group discussion, please let Alicia know. You may email her at apdavis1285@gmail.com or call her at 803-360-5247. The group is looking at meeting once a month beginning on Sunday, March 3rd from 5pm – 7pm at the church. 2 slots left! Don’t miss out! I will be away next Mon-Wed at Camp Gravatt with the Bishop and other clergy for Pre-Lenten retreat. I will be available if any pastoral emergencies arise. I continue to pray for each of you. May God bless our work, and may we do his will as we seek to proclaim God’s unconditional love. C+ Upcoming Events: Tuesday, Feb. 19th Funeral Service for Charles Coker, 3:00 pm Wed.

We welcome, serve and love all unconditionally through Jesus Christ THIS WEEK AT ALL SAINTS: From the Rector: Merry Christmas! We are in the midst of this wonderful season and I can’t stop thinking about our beautiful Christmas Eve service last week. Many thanks to all those who served, especially our choir and wonderful musicians, Carol Roosevelt and Patrick Kiley. A lovely champagne reception was held afterwards (thanks Alicia), which I think is on track to becoming a tradition. The new year is upon us and we have a lot planned. Christian Formation classes begin on Jan. 13th at 9:30 am as well as our first Film & Theology series that evening at 5:00 pm. As always, we will provide popcorn and drinks, and then share a pot luck supper after during our discussion. We will end the month with our Annual Parish meeting set for Sunday, January 27th directly following the 10:30 service. New vestry members will be named, and we’ll honor those finishing their terms. Please make every effort to attend on this important day. I continue to pray for each of you. May God bless our work, and may we do his will as we seek to proclaim God’s unconditional love.
