Sunday worship is central to life at All Saints’. Each week, our parishioners are active as Altar Guild members, Lay Eucharistic Ministers, Lay Readers, lectors, choir members, acolytes, ushers and greeters. While the 10:30 Sunday service is going on, still more parishioners are active as Sunday school teachers and nursery care providers. All are welcome to receive communion at the Lord’s Table.

All Saints’ Church holds worship services every Sunday at 8:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. from September until mid-June. The 8:00 a.m. is a said service of Holy Eucharist (Rite II). The 10:30 is a Rite II celebration of Holy Eucharist with choir and music. During the summer, one worship service is held at 9:15 a.m., Rite II with music but no choir.

Each Sunday after the 10:30 service (9:15 service in the summer), our congregation gathers in the Parish Hall for Coffee Hour. It is a family event, like a large and lively family dinner time: all generations attend; we meet and chat for a while, catching up on each other’s news, sharing the joys and challenges of the week over coffee or hot chocolate. As we nibble on crumb cake or goldfish crackers, we extend the blessings of the Eucharist, pausing in our busy lives to enjoy each other’s company and fellowship.

All Saints’ offers special services throughout the year. We celebrate Christmas with two services on Christmas Eve: the children’s Christmas pageant and a choral Eucharist. One service is offered on Christmas Day. The Palm Sunday service at 10:30 begins with a procession around the city block led by a crucifer and bagpiper. Holy Week services include Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter Day. We celebrate the feast day of St. Francis by inviting All Saints’ parishioners, friends, neighbors, and their pets to be blessed at the 10:30 service.

One of our favorite special services is “Family Service” Sundays where the children participate in our worship during the entire service. These services consist of a children’s sermon or a skit performed by the children. We use an alternative Eucharistic Prayer at Family Services. The All Saints’ Children’s Choir will often sing and play instruments.
