Happenings at All Saints'
Wednesday Morning Class
Please join us on Wednesday mornings, 10:30 a.m. until 12 Noon, for Bible study in the Luke Classroom in the McClurg building. It is an open class for everyone. All are welcome!
Celebrating Our Acolytes
Our acolytes are youth trained to assist with worship services. We currently have over forty acolytes on our roster. This year we celebrated the graduation of two senior acolytes. Kenny and Jacob have both served since they were ten years old.
Winter Foyers
A foyer is simply an entrance hall, according to Webster’s Dictionary.
A Foyer Group at All Saints’ then is an entry into the fellowship of our church, a way to become acquainted with all those whom you see every Sunday, especially those members who attend services different from your own. In that way, by meeting each other we become one body, able to recognize and get to know our fellow members.
Life Long Learning at All Saints’ Church
Fr. Reid recently mentioned to me that he thinks about Jesus all the time. Of course, I responded with something like, “That’s great!” but actually thought something like “Really? That seems extreme. On the other hand, it is your job, so … good for you!” And good for us. After all, who wants a pastor that doesn’t spend a great deal of time thinking about Jesus? Fr. Reid’s passion for Jesus gets him out of bed in the wee hours of the morning to pray and study. It gives him energy to put in long days and drives him to work so hard for the rest of us. He has to do budgets, and run committees and supervise staff and all that – but always in service to the goal of helping his flock share his passionate desire to know and follow Christ.
International Order of Saint Luke
The International Order of Saint Luke is an inter-denominational religious order dedicated to the Christian healing ministry begun in 1932 by an Episcopal priest. OSL is ecumenical, with members belonging to a variety of Christian denominations. OSL believes that healing exists today. Healing occurs through the hands of health professionals as well as through the hands of fellow Christians. As the Bible teaches, we are equipped to heal with the power of Jesus Christ.
The OSL Doulos Chapter prayer team at All Saints' trains with resources from the international organization. The parish prayer team assists our Rector in parish pastoral ministry, including:
Best Source of a Great Read
Finding a good book out of the thousands, or millions available is nearly impossible. But by joining the All Saints’ Book Club you have more recommendations and friends to discuss them. The Book Club meets regularly on the second Monday of each month at 10:30 a.m. in the John classroom.
Everyone is welcome.
Here are the next three months selections to make your search simple: for August, “House of Thieves” by Charles Balfour; September, ”Lilac Girls” by Martha H. Kelly; October, “Killers of the Flower Moon” by Linda Grann. Books are selected by majority vote and all members are encouraged to lead discussions if they so choose.
