The Pastoral Care Team seeks to serve members of All Saints’ with compassionate, tangible support. This group sends cards, provides meals, provides transportation, prays, and provides prayer shawls, altar flowers, and Eucharist during visits.
Meals
What expresses love and support better than comfort food? All Saints’ meal team provides home-cooked meals for folks recovering from illness or hospitalizations, those who are unpacking into new homes, and those with new babies. There is a supply of home-cooked meals in the freezer, too, ready to be delivered when needed.Stephen Ministry

Stitches for the Saints
This group of dedicated knitters and crocheters creates prayer shawls for the home and hospital bound, and for new babies. The group meets monthly, the third Tuesday of each month, in the Welcome Center. You do not have to be an accomplished knitter to join; the members are happy to teach you!
