Ash Wednesday

Ash Wednesday is Wednesday, March 5! Services will be at 12:00pm & 6:00pm (+Live Stream). The nursery will be available for infants - 6 years old.
Falling six and half weeks before Easter, this will mark the beginning of the forty days of Lent in preparation for Christ’s resurrection on Easter Sunday. The ashes are a sign of penitence and a reminder of mortality, and may be imposed with the sign of the cross. The Ash Wednesday service is one of the Proper Liturgies for Special Days in the BCP (p. 264). Imposition of ashes at the Ash Wednesday service is optional.

I know, we don't want to admit it is coming, but it is, school is almost here. As part of that, the "Blessing of the Backpacks" will be Sunday, August 3 and 10 during the 8:30am, 11:00am and 5:30pm services . All ages are welcome to bring backpacks, school supplies, books or just you as an educator or student. The clergy will say a special blessing to start the school year!

In this space, you’ll find reflections from parishioners who have taken a moment to say “thank you”, to God, to this church, and to one another. We hope you’re encouraged by their writings, voices or videos, and inspired to reflect on your own blessings, large and small. We invite you to pause, be encouraged, and consider what you’re grateful for today as well.

The 2025 All Saints Parish Retreat weekend at Camp McDowell kicks off Friday, August 22 , with check-in starting at 4:30 pm and wraps up with lunch on Sunday, August 24 around noon. Whether you're joining us for the weekend, staying one night, or just coming for the day on Saturday, we’re glad you’ll be part of it. Enjoy unstructured time, good company, great food, and a mix of fun activities. Try out camp favorites like canoeing, hiking, a hayride, and the pasture party, or just take it easy in a rocking chair. It’s a chance to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones in a place that brings people together.
Dear All Saints Family, As many of you have heard, our Rector, Brad and our part-time Associate Priest, Cindy, will both be leaving in July. We wish them well and will celebrate their ministry among us on July 13th immediately following the 10:00 am service. While this summer is a time of transition, we write with confidence and gratitude, knowing that the spirit of All Saints remains strong. Since 1928, our parish has seen many seasons of change, always sustained by God’s love and our care for each other. This time will be no different. Our ministries will keep changing lives inside and outside our walls, and our dedicated staff will continue their excellent work without interruption. We have many fun dates to look forward to! Please join us for Burgers and Bingo on July 17th at 6:00 pm. The annual Blessing of the Backpacks will be on August 3rd and 10th. On September 7th, make sure to attend Game Day, where team All Saints comes together to learn about all of our wonderful ministries and how to become more involved. We are grateful for the guidance and support of Bishop Curry and her diocesan staff, who are working closely with the vestry to ensure that all aspects of church life and administration are well cared for during this interim period. Plans are underway to welcome clergy who will preach and celebrate with us on Sundays until an interim rector is in place. Clergy leadership will provide support and guidance to our staff. Bishop Curry has scheduled a meeting on July 14 with vestry to discuss specifics. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us or any vestry member. We are here for you and will keep you updated as plans develop. Thank you for your faithfulness, prayers and trust as we walk this journey together. We are excited to see where God is leading us. In Christ’s love,
