All Saints’ Episcopal Church
We welcome, serve and love all unconditionally through Jesus Christ THIS WEEK AT ALL SAINTS: From the Rector: The business of the school year begins this week and with it we begin to look to Fall. September 9th will be a wonderful opportunity to look at the ministries of All Saints’ and find your place in them. We will have a ministry fair that Sunday. It will be an opportunity to see all the ways All Saints’ seeks to live out God’s call in this place. The following Sunday, September 16th, we will begin our Adult formation class at 9:30 am. The first PC home football game is Saturday, September 15th and we will begin “Episcopal Tailgating”. We are also having shag lessons, Film & Theology events and the Blessing of Animals coming in the following weeks. More specific information will be communicated about these events. These will be wonderful opportunities to introduce friends to All Saints’. All Saints has many gifts. We need to continue to seek to live out our mission with those gifts. Our call to welcome in the name of Christ is our imperative. We can only do it by seeking God and sharing God.
