NEW ADULT FORUM BEGINS THIS WEEK
A new series begins this week focusing on how the history of the Anglican Communion has effected the Church we are today. We will be using a book entitled “Living With History” (Vol. 5 of the Church’s Teaching Series) by Fredrica Harris Thompsett. This six-week course will require the purchase of this book in the amount of $12. If you wish to participate either on Saturday evenings or Sunday mornings, please contact Roger Allee in the office [954-467-6496, ext. 102] or via email roger@allsaintsfl.org.
BEDS AROUND THE ALTAR RETURNS JULY 21-25
Over the last few years, All Saints has been host to several families that have unfortunately found themselves in a homeless situation. We have adopted this as one part of our outreach program. Thank you to those who have already volunteered for the week of July 21-25. We still need two adults (male and female preferred) to host from 7 p.m. until 7 a.m. on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday nights in the church sanctuary. We also need one more host (female preferred) for Thursday night and one more host (male preferred) for Friday night. For more information or to volunteer as a disciple for this wonderful opportunity of giving, contact Richard Ensminger in the Parish Office at 954-467-6496, ext. 105, or richard@allsaintsfl.org.
