The annual ECW/Lord & Tailor Luncheon is scheduled for Noon on Wednesday April 10th. By popular vote, we will be going to the Skylight Dining Room at Kingswood Voc-Tech.

The cost is $15.00 per person. $5.00 of this is a tax deductible donation to the Culinary Arts Program. Reservation deadline is Friday, April 5th. All women of the church, and their guests, are invited to join us. For more information, please call Jane Milligan at 569-4330.

Celebrate Earth Day: Walk/Carpool to Church

On Sunday, April 21 (the day before Earth Day), interested members of the congregation can plan to come to church in the most environmentally sound way possible. If you'd like to participate and you live within a mile of the church and are in good health, consider walking - with others if possible. If it's too far to walk, make a plan to carpool with others coming to church from your part of town. See if you can fill every seat in the car. A map of the area towns will be posted in the Undercroft with pins for you to place on the map to indicate where you live. Note the number on your pin and sign up with your pin number and phone number. If you'd like to walk you can indicate that on the sign up sheet. Make sure to call people in advance of April 21 to arrange to carpool or walk together. Let's see how few cars can be used to get our congregation to church on April 21. If you have questions, you can call Susan Fuller at 515-1223.

National Child Abuse Prevention & Awareness Month

April is National Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness month. CASA of NH is working diligently to take advantage of this campaign by using it as a vehicle to educate people across the state about the issues surrounding child maltreatment. There is some information posted on the bulletin board in the parish hall, if you wish to learn more.

Quotes Needed

The Rector Search Committee is currently putting together a Parish Profile. This electronic document is critical in communicating to potential rectors who we are, where we have been and where we would like to go as a congregation. We are using church data, community interviews, results from our recent survey, photos and historical information to create it.

We are also looking for brief quotes about All Saints' from church goers and members of the community to use as 'pull outs'. If you have a brief (25 words or less) statement or comment about what All Saints' means to you or how it has affected your life, we would love to have it. Please send these to Carolyn Sundquist at csundquist@roadrunner.com or drop them off in the parish office. If we use your quote, we will also want to identify you in some way so please let us know if it is okay to do so. We hope to get quotes from a cross section of our parishioners, so the more contributions the merrier!

Thank you for your thoughts and energy as we continue our journey is seeking a new rector.
