Ordination Celebration - March 12
crossFrom 7:00 - 9:00 p.m., March 12, we have a wonderful opportunity to joyously gather with two young men whom God has called into ordained ministry and who have faithfully prepared themselves to respond to this call.  Nick Jordan and Thomas Kortus will be ordained as deacons in the Anglican Mission in America by Bishop Terrell Glenn.  Join together for worship, celebration and a great time of fellowship after the service.  Please bring savory finger foods and fruit to share - we'll supply the cake and drinks. 



Change Exchange for Rwanda
kidsThroughout Lent, we are collecting loose change to contribute toward a manual labor project our Sister Parish team will be participating in during their June trip.  Grab your loose change and bring it each Sunday, placing it in the large African vase on the Sister Parish table in the narthex. Adults, youth, kids - Let's Build a Wall Together!


Lunch With Bishop Terrell Glenn - March 14
will be leading our worship service, March 14.  Afterward Terrell is available for lunch with a small group of people, anyone interested in learning more about God's work in the AMiA and in the broader Anglican world.  (Space is limited to 18.) If you would like to join Terrell for this Dutch-treat lunch, please register on or before March 10 with  Cindy Broderius


Rwanda Benefit Concert & Art Auction - April 10
kidsIn anticipation of sending a team to Rwanda this summer, we will be holding a benefit concert and silent art auction on April 10 to raise funds for our partnership with St. Paul's Cathedral, our sister parish in Butare, Rwanda.  The event will be from 6 - 9 p.m. at the Church of the Good Shepherd in Durham.  Childcare will be provided and the evening will include light refreshments.  This event promises to be one of the year's highlights, as well as a wonderful opportunity to come together and care for our brothers and sisters in Rwanda.  Bring a friend!
Welcome Guests and Friends

Women's Evening Bible Studies
There are a couple of women's evening Bible studies now meeting. One meets at the church building at 7PM every second and fourth Thursday of the month. Join us for sermon discussions, prayer and fellowship. Contact  Virginia McCray for more information.

Barbara Beasley is also leading a Wednesday night study from Beth Moore on the book of Revelation. This group meets at her home. Please contact Barbara Beasley for details and directions.
Worship During Lent
lentOn Sundays during Lent we will be following the Penitential service in the Book of Common Prayer.  Much of the service parallels our normal worship, but there are important differences.  Please click here to read more about what to expect, and please make every effort to be on time as we prepare our hearts and join in worship.

Morning Prayer - Wednesday Mornings
Please join us in Morning Prayer every Wednesday at 7:45AM throughout this Lenten season. We will be using the Daily Office from the Book of Common Prayer (these will be provided by the Church) and will meet in the sanctuary at All Saints. For anyone interested in delving deeper into Anglican spirituality, learning more about the Book of Common Prayer, or  just needing a time of prayer during this penitential season, you are all welcome to attend. Please contact Brad Acton  or Hank Tarlton for further questions.

Stories of God's Goodness
The Prayer Ministry is collecting stories of how God ministers to us through prayer to put up on our website at here. If you have a story that you'd like to share about answered prayer, about healing or transformation or restoration that has come through prayer, or about how God has met you in a special way in prayer, we'd love to hear it!  Please email your story to Dorothy Bedor.  If you'd like to share a story but you're not comfortable with your name (or someone else's name) appearing in it or being associated with it, please let us know and we'll ensure that the story is anonymous.


Faith Formation Classes - Join Us
Faith Formation, All Saints' version of Sunday School, got off to a great start last Sunday! It's not too late to join in. Shaped by the Story focuses on engaging the biblical text by using the ancient art of Hebrew storytelling. Philippians in Greek - a class not just for Greek students - is an in depth exploration of God's word to us in Philippians. Classes for children focus on exploring the themes of the liturgical season of Lent with an eye to God's great plan of redemption through Jesus Christ. For fuller course descriptions, click here. This next season promises to be a great chance to be shaped by God together, so join us on Sundays for Faith Formation.

Classes for adults, youth and children will be held until March 21st. Classes meet from 9:00 to 9:45 AM. For more information, contact David Hyman, 919-631-9564.
