Our Community Trunk-or-Treat will be held on Wednesday, October 29, from 5:30–7:00pm in the church parking lot. Everyone is invited to join us for pizza, hot dogs, chips, and water. This year we are adding a Trunk Decorating Contest with prizes for Most Creative, Best Overall, and Best Costume. We will also have make-your-own treat bag stations for kids to enjoy. You can get involved by providing a trunk, choosing a theme, decorating it, and registering in advance since spaces are limited. Another way to help is by bringing bags of candy to the designated basket in the Great Hall. You may also donate money on Realm by selecting “Wednesday Night Supper” in the dropdown, or volunteer to help with setup and cleanup at the link above. If you have any questions contact Kathleen Busbee, kbusbee@allsaintsbhm.org

Alert! To be clear, All Saints' Clergy, Vestry, Warden's or staff will NEVER ask for money or gift cards from you! If you receive any communication asking for money in any form at all, it is a SCAM! Or if you get texts asking for a private conversation, it is a scam! These scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, so it’s important to approach texts and emails with caution. One quick way to spot a scammer is to check the email address it came from. No matter the name, look at the email address. Emails from All Saints staff will always end with "@allsaintsbhm.org" (i.e. office@allsaintsbhm.org). Never reply to, click on, or enter any information if you receive one of these suspicious EMAIL/TEXT messages. Most schemes involve scammers mimicking church staff, typically posing as someone in a position of authority asking you for money transfers or gift cards. Many times, the scammers will manipulate the email address, name, or even the area code of phone numbers, so that it appears to be coming from someone you know. Even if the email or text seems legitimate, if a request seems even remotely “off” or is asking for anything from you, don’t act on it until you confirm it with a phone call ( 205-879-8651 ) or face-to-face conversation with someone at All Saints. Some general suggestions: Check sender details carefully. Any suspicious emails or text message should be investigated before replying. Pay attention to the message content, including attachments and URLs. When in doubt, call: If there are questions about any email, do not reply. Instead, call our office - 205-879-8651 Label it spam: If your email service has the ability, report the email as spam. Here’s how you can report these scams: Report Phishing Attacks: the United States Computer Emergency Readiness Team has an Incident Reporting page to report email phishing, as well as an email to forward them to, at https://www.us-cert.gov/report-phishing . Forward all emails to the Anti Phishing Working group at phishing-report@us-cert.gov . Report text scams to through the Federal Trade Commission’s Complaint Assistant which helps the FTC detect patterns of fraud and abuse.

There will be a one-day retreat, Saturday, October 25, 10:30am-4:30pm, designed to help you understand yourself more deeply and strengthen your connections with others. The Enneagram is more than a personality framework. It is a tool for understanding ourselves and the people around us with greater clarity. This one-day retreat offers space to learn, reflect, and engage in a supportive setting. Together, we’ll explore the nine Enneagram types through presentations, small-group discussions, and type panels where individuals share their real-life experiences. Whether you are new to the Enneagram or looking to deepen your understanding, you will gain practical insights to support personal growth and strengthen relationships. Out time will include opportunities for reflection, thoughtful conversation, and practices that encourage greater awareness. As we examine the patterns that shape our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, we will also consider what helps us respond with openness and understanding. You will leave with tools to apply these insights in everyday life – for yourself and in your relationships.
