The Episcopal Church of All Saints gathers people together to hear Christ's Gospel through the Sacrament of Holy Communion, prayer, study, fellowship and service. We are committed to growth in faith and community through welcoming, caring, teaching, giving and praying.
As an all-inclusive community, All Saints congregation reflects the diversity of our modern society in its worship, music, teachings, and ministry. Generations of families have called All Saints their parish for a number of years and the church is known for being one of the few in the area that still holds "high" mass.
All Saints has a long tradition of embracing the homeless and disenfranchised. The church was often opened to allow homeless people to sleep in the pews during the harshest winter nights and it was at the forefront of providing pastoral care to AIDs patients and their families.
The Damien Center, the area leader in AIDs prevention and care, has been the ongoing recipient of food, personal items, and volunteer action from the All Saints family. The church also sponsors a booth every June at the Pride Festival to spread the news of our Episcopal traditions and faith.
The Outreach Committee is looking at several possibilities to expand our ministry to the homeless and to impoverished children in our area. We are looking for volunteers for our In-Reach programs as well, ranging from drivers that could bring people to services to our phone prayer chain.
Please contact vestry member Cathy Scott if you would like to become involved in the mission of All Saints. As always, we welcome your suggestions and involvement.
