To help spread the word about *Stations in the Street*, be sure to read this thoughtful article from Nina Stewart that dives into the heart of the experience. She shares meaningful reflections on what this opportunity offers during the season of Lent—a chance to pause, engage, and consider Christ’s passion in a deeper, more personal way.

What are the signs hanging outside the church? They are "Stations in the Street," an outdoor art exhibit by Scott Erickson that will be open day and night here at All Saints from until Easter Sunday, April 20 . Take a walk through the Stations of the Cross and reflect on Jesus’ journey. Stop for a moment of prayer, find creative inspiration, or take a peaceful stroll. No tickets. No set hours. Just art, whenever you’re ready to experience it. Be sure to scan the QR codes on each piece of art to read a brief reflection by the artist! Here are additional ways to immerse yourself in this experience: Sunday Mornings ( Room 223, 10–10:45am ) – Join us to reflect on the meditations. No preparation needed. Wednesday Evenings ( 6–7pm ) – Group reflection led by Rachel Woodroof and the Rev. Brad Landry. Self-Guided Option – Access materials online or pick up a hard copy for individual reflection.

As Christians, we believe all of creation was called into being by the very word of God. The Bible reveals that our Creator calls us to be stewards of creation and to love our neighbors. Inspired by the unsurpassed love God showed us by sending Jesus Christ, God’s only son, to redeem us through his death and resurrection, we respond to God's commands. The Episcopal Diocese of Alabama and the All Saints Creation Care Committee is committed to environmental education, advocacy, and action for our neighbors and all of creation. Here are some great opportunities to get involved!
