​All Saints’ Episcopal Church
We welcome, serve and love all unconditionally
through Jesus Christ
 
THIS WEEK AT ALL SAINTS:
 
From the Rector:
 
Christian Formation classes begin this coming Sunday at 9:30 am.  We will be studying the scripture passages from our lectionary for the Sunday.  Our first Film & Theology of the year will be next Sunday as well and begins at 5:00 pm.  As always, we will provide popcorn and drinks, and then share a pot luck supper after during our discussion.  Please use this opportunity to invite someone, especially if they do not have a church family, to join us.  We will end the month with our Annual Parish meeting set for Sunday, January 27th directly following the 10:30 service.  We’ll have an “amplified” coffee hour that day as well.   New vestry members will be elected, and we’ll honor those finishing their terms.  Please make every effort to attend on this important day.
 
We also welcome to our Parish an intern, Mitchell Felton. Mitchell will be with us on Sunday mornings and several hours each week. He and I will look at his gifts and where best he might help with the mission of All Saints’ and the ministry we share. I hope you will get to know him and welcome him in our midst. Here is some information from Mitchell:
 
Hello All Saints!
My name is Mitchell Felton and I am from Greenwood, South Carolina. I am a senior at Lander University where my major is Sociology and my minor is religion. The last several years I have spent time in youth ministry as a Young life leader and as the Youth Director at The Church of the Resurrection Episcopal. In my leisure time I enjoy reading, eating, going to concerts, and being with friends. Last fall I officially started the Discernment Program for Holy Orders and I am looking forward to worshiping alongside you as the spirit guides us into a new season.  
With peace,
Mitchell Felton

 
 
 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.
