Another Opportunity to Join Women's Bible Study

It’s not too late to join a Women’s Bible Study!

Believing God is a video and discussion study offered at 2 different times on Thursdays. It examines the lives of Abraham, Moses, and others as examples of persons who believed God. In this 10-week Beth Moore Bible Study, participants will explore this vital topic through 5 statements of Faith: God is who He says He is; God will do what He said He will do; I am who God says I am; I can do all things through Christ; and God’s word is alive & active in me. Workbooks are $18 each.

The Daytime option meets via Zoom from 10 a.m. until noon beginning October 14th .

Contact Deacon Julie or Connie Odems for more information and the Zoom link. Evening meets in person from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m. at the church. Contact Desiree Barker at dbarker@allsaintswoodbridge.org or Katherine Monroe. Walk-ins welcome but it would be helpful if we know you are planning to come.

There is also a new Bible Study meeting Tuesday mornings starting October 5.

Do you feel like a lost sheep or a beloved lamb? Do you know the Good Shepherd who loves you and leads you beside still waters, or do you long for green pastures and quiet rest? Psalm 23 gives us confidence in life, comfort in death, and reminds us that we really can trust Jesus in every season of our lives. Come with us to trade self-reliance for the truth that God will always care for you; and experience the depths of God’s compassion. Join us October 5—November 16 in All Saints multipurpose room each Tuesday from 10 a.m.—noon. All women are welcome, and we’ve saved a place for you. Contact Chloellen@comcast.net for more information.

Ministry Update- Story Time at the Park

What's going on at Cloverdale Park on Thursday mornings? Story Time Park Day!

Each week, the children’s ministry of All Saints’ Church hosts a Story Time morning at the park where anyone is welcome. We have met some of our new attending Sunday morning, MOPS, and VBS families at the park! We are also providing early learning and reading skills, a nutritious snack, conversation, and community with the heart of Jesus.... in the midst of Dale City. This ministry also occasionally provides rides for our Dale City mothers and children who do not have a car, as well as giving away Jesus Storybook Bibles to those that share they do not have a Bible. New mothers are given baby blankets from our Needlework Ministry.

Story Time Park Day invites the church to come out to Cloverdale Park on Thursdays at 10am! There are so many ways All Saints’ Church members can help support and be a part of this important community ministry. Talk with new friends from the Dale City Community, read a story or pass out/provide snacks to the children, intercede in prayer for young families in the heart of Dale City. Like to read classic children's stories? Or, if you are interested in donating brand new Jesus Storybook Bibles, snacks/mini juice boxes, rides, or taking a turn to read to children, contact Tara.

- baby hats, blankets, booties to Nursery/Children's Ministry.

- prayer shawls to Women's Ministry.

- quilts to Caring Ministry

- scarfs/hats to Food Pantry Ministry

- Threads of Blessing went back into the closet, waiting for the time Uganda ministry is back traveling.

The closet is mostly empty and ready for more donations. Take a look at the photo collage below to see the sorted items.
