There will be an information session Sunday July 11, 2021, 2-3 p.m. in the Admin Conference Room for those curious about becoming a Stephen Minister!
All Saints’ is enrolled in a nationwide program called Stephen Ministry. This ministry matches specially trained members of the congregation with people going through a tough time. They meet together once a week until the tough time is over. Stephen Ministers offer emotional and spiritual support in these times of trouble. Both Deacon Julie Tilton and Deacon Andy Terry have attended an intensive week-long program equipping them to train Stephen Ministers for our congregation and to oversee the ministry.
The next group of All Saints’ Stephen Ministers will begin their 50 hours of training on Sunday, July 18, 2-4:30 p.m. The class will be ready for commissioning before Thanksgiving. Please speak with Deacon Julie or Deacon Andy if you are feeling called to be a Stephen Minister. More information on Stephen Ministry can be found here.

Our children discover they are priceless to God as they embark on an epic quest through hidden ruins, ancient caves, and dense jungles. This is the summer event that helps kids discover God's greatest treasure isn't diamonds, gems, or gold—it's them! Small group crews and their Crew Leader will travel together for each day's adventure, worshipping and singing at Sing & Play Rock, digging into Bible Adventures, experimenting with Science-y Fun take-home Gizmos, playing games that reinforce the day's Bible Point, viewing Kid Vid Cinema real-kid testimonies, and eating fun treats at Vine Dining Snacks.

Bishop John has just written a letter of encouragement in the most recent Diocese newsletter. He reminds us that many churches are experiencing the sensitive decisions for our congregations and missions as restrictions ease. We hope you’ll find it helpful, as well.
