Part of the All Souls vision to "seek the peace of the city" is to be an urban monastery, pausing throughout the day to gather with others as we "pray the hours" in our downtown chapel, as well as various locations across the city. Throughout the day, each week, there will be a variety of contemplative prayer services, beginning with an Advent Compline this Sunday in the chapel after the service. We invite you to join us.

The 2016 Shepherding Team slate was approved after the service on Sunday, Nov. 22.

Outgoing member Marie Alcorn's tenure is over at the end of the year. Please thank Marie for her three years of service.

Funds are still available if you know of a project that will bless and positively impact Knoxville. This is especially timely as we near the holidays. Click here to apply for a small grant.
