2024 Children's Formation begins Sunday, September 15th


Welcome to Children’s Formation at All Saints Episcopal Church. We look forward to a meaningful year with your family.


Our parish uses a method called Catechesis of the Good Shepherd in a special room called an 'atrium'. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a faith formation experience for children ages 3-12 years old. It is based on the belief that young children can and do experience God. An atrium is an environment created to nurture children’s spirituality. This approach to the religious formation of children is rooted in the Holy Bible, the liturgy of the church, and the educational principles of Maria Montessori. Hands-on materials are used to help children and adults reflect together on the great mysteries of the Christian faith. For more information about Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, please visit their website.


You may register up to three children from the same family on the registration form. *Please use a laptop or PC to complete information rather than an iPad or an iPhone. Handheld devices have trouble transmitting registration information.

Contemplative Outreach Birmingham is honored to host Rev. Dr. Stuart Higginbotham for a one-day contemplative conference on *Poetic Imagination and the Consent to the Divine Presence*. The conference will take place on Saturday, March 15, 2025 , from 9:00am to 3:00pm at Saint Stephen’s Episcopal Church. The cost is $70 by credit card or $65 by check, with lunch included. Registration is required. Toward the end of his life, Fr. Thomas Keating turned to poetry to express his deepest awareness of the Divine Presence. His poems serve both as a personal testament to his spiritual journey and as a teaching tool for others to explore in their own practice. Understanding why Fr. Thomas embraced poetry at that stage of his life offers valuable insights into his spiritual wisdom. The Rev. Dr. Stuart Higginbotham is an Episcopal priest and serves as rector of Grace Episcopal Church in Gainesville, Georgia. He is also Assistant Professor in the Practice of Spiritual Formation and Ministry at Candler School of Theology at Emory University.
