Community Involvement
All Souls does not take formal positions on doctrinal or ethical positions outside of the Creed. We do, however, support our people as they, under the authority of scripture, in prayer and through community, discern the way of Christ in our world. Following Augustine, we believe in essentials, unity, in non-essentials, charity and in all things love. We celebrate all the diverse ways our members follow Christ in the world, even when we disagree with one another. Announcements in the update reflect the many ways our people are serving God in our community. They do not reflect All Souls' endorsement of a particular issue, doctrinal position, or cause.

Volunteer Opportunity with tnAchieves:
The mission of tnAchieves is to increase higher education opportunities for Tennessee high school students by providing last-dollar scholarships with mentor guidance.
Mentors are community volunteers who help students transition from high school to college. The college admissions and financial aid process can be intimidating and confusing, and the mentor is there to help eliminate some of the intimidation or confusion.
Mentors will meet their students in early December 2014 and will stay with these students through their first semester of college (until December 2015).
Mentor Expectations:
1. Attend January Team Meeting-Meet your mentees (1 Hour at your student's school)
2. Attend March Team Meeting (1 Hour at your student's school)
3. Check in via email/phone/text every other week to remind the student of deadlines
