Green Tip: If you wash your vehicle at home, park it on the lawn for the wash. Soapy run-off from the driveway into the gutters does more harm to our water supply than it does when soaking into the ground. Better yet, go to a commercial car-wash that reuses the water.
Summer worship schedule:
8:00 Rite One (quiet communion)
9:30 Traditional Sunday School for children 9:30 Adult Sunday School in the Parlor
10:30 Rite Two (traditional communion with blended music)
As we continue the process of discernment for our new Rector, we ask you to join in praying the following prayer every day:
Eternal God, we lay the life of our parish before you in this transitional time as we search for a new Rector. Renew in our Church a sense of your love and mission, that we may serve the people around us and be guided to the priest who, as our Rector, will care for this parish and equip us for our ministries. Guide those involved in the serach process that they may patiently listen and hear what Your Spirit says. Give us the grace and power to follow where you would lead, that your Name may be glorified among us and your people strengthened in the work of reconciliation and caring for others. All this we ask through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Shawl Ministry
Our healing shawl ministry at All Saints is far reaching. Recently one of our members sent a shawl to a young man who was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Disease. She received a thank you note which I want to share with you:
“Thank you so much for the beautiful shawl that you gave Matt. We believe there is Power In Prayer and with all the prayers that our loved ones are lifting to God, we know that Matt is going to be healed. God is in Control. Every time we wrap ourselves in the shawl, we will think of you and the hands/ talent/ prayers that went into making this beautiful item!”
Stitches from the Saints’ meets on the second Tuesday of the month and we would welcome anyone to join us. Please call me for details or if you need a healing shawl for someone who is ill or in crisis.
