Lenten Quiet Morning   Join us on Saturday, February 27 from 9am to 12noon (or for any part of the morning) in the main church for a Lenten Quiet Morning. Come for prayer, quiet, and reflection on the meaning of Lent. Clergy will be available for individual spiritual conversation and/or confession at various times throughout the morning.

 

Upcoming Adult Education  9am in Manning Hall—3 week series  February 21, 28, and March 7: What Legacy Will You Leave?

 

2010 Lenten Dinner & Program Join us for a communal supper, a learning session, and a contemplative Compline service on Thursdays from February 25 through March 25. The evening begins at 6:00pm with supper and will end before 8:00pm. For Adults: The season of Lent provides us with 40 days to consider our lives and our relationship with the world around us. It is a time to renew our commitment to God, reflect on our lives and respond to Jesus’ call for us to love one another. 

Our 2010 Lenten series, Healing a Hurting World, is designed to encourage, challenge and inspire us to reflect on what steps we might take to help those who live in need. We will consider our neighbors who are suffering, locally and globally, and discover how our compassion and motivation can help others overcome the challenges of poverty, hunger and disease. Through prayer, learning and serving together we will renew our commitment to God and those in need.     

 

February 25: Introduction: Pray, Learn, and Serve—What are we already doing?  What can we do?  Led by Fr. Poulson Reed.

 

March 4: The speaker will be Kate Forbes, our own parishioner and active member of the International Red Cross, who will share updates on Haiti and other insights into outreach on a global level.

 

March 11: Lisa Gallagher, Youth Ministry Coordinator will help us delve into how we can heal the world individually and as a community through prayer.

 

March 18:  The Rev. Licia Affer and The Rev. Lucie Thomas, from St. Andrews, Nogales will share about the how Episcopal Relief and Development works to heal the hurting world through the implementation of the Millennium Development Goals.  Our All Saints’ community will be sending “Nets for Life” to eliminate the devastating effects of malaria in Africa.  Learn how just $12 for a net can save a family’s life. 

 

March 25: A call to action locally:  helping Interfaith Cooperative Ministries.  Roger Benson and other ICM volunteers from All Saints’ will show us about this valuable ministry and work with us as we sort and bag our food items to give to ICM!

 

 For Children:  New, this year…children will gather for their own Lenten program. After sharing our communal meal, they will head off to various places around the campus. We will have a great time exploring how we can help heal a hurting world. We'll learn, we’ll pray, we’ll play, and we’ll serve together!  And of course, the children will be home by bedtime. 

 Adult ConfirmationPracticing the Way   This class is intended for adults (and youth in 9th grade and above) who are new to the church, for those who have been members of another Christian community, or for those who are already Episcopalians but would like to learn more about how  we practice the Christian faith as Episcopalians. Those who are already confirmed members of All Saints’ are welcome to take the class as a refresher or as part of a reevaluation of their faith lives. These classes, taught by Father Reed and other members of the staff, will be held on eight Wednesday evenings, beginning on March 3, 2010 from 6:00 to 8:00pm and ending on April 28, 2010 (there will be no class on March 31, the Wednesday of Holy Week). Bishop Smith will officiate at our Confirmation liturgy on Sunday, May 2 at 10:00am. Please call the church office to sign up for the class at 602-279-5539. Childcare may be offered if there is sufficient interest from families with children. 

 

 The Rabbi Albert Plotkin Fund has been established to raise money for Interfaith preaching and teaching at All Saints’ in the name and memory of our beloved Rabbi.    We want to honor his desire to keep ongoing interfaith dialogues alive. If interested in donating to this, please contact Shelley Dudley in the Church Office.
