Candlelight Christmas Eve Photos

The slide/video show is of the Candlelight Christmas Eve Service. It lasts just under 3 minutes, but I think the congregation will love it as it captures the children, the music, and of course the candlelight singing of Silent Night. love it, and hopefully others will, too.  

Best wishes.

ECW (Episcopal Church Women) Annual Meeting

The meeting is being held Tuesday, January 28th at 10:00 a.m.

 

Did you know that you are a member automatically if you are 1) a woman and 2) an Episcopalian? Our group, originally called the Women's Auxiliary to the Board of Missions, was started in 1871. We are not your "grandmother's organization" (though some are grandmothers). We are all ages, ethnic origins and socioeconomic backgrounds with the common denominator of the love of God and the wish to do His work. We aspire to be a "Godspark" shining and sharing the love of Christ.

 

Wow! And how do we do that?  We fund raise creatively to support our Community Outreach and All Saints. This year we had a kitchen tour to replace our long lived "Holiday Fair." We work in concert with the Vestry in Church functions (as in the visit of the Bishop on Palm Sunday). We support the Life Ministries Food Pantry, Caregivers of Southern Carroll County, VNA Hospice, All Saints Pre-school, Families in Need, the Kingswood Youth Center, and many more. At our annual meeting in January we will assess our support for the coming year, plan our meetings and Election Day Bake Sale.  

 

Please join us that morning. We would welcome your ideas and your company. Any questions, contact Prue Fitts (569-2426).

First Nite Volunteers Needed

Wolfeboro's annual First Nite celebration will once again feature performances at All Saints' Church. Volunteers are needed to assist performers, check/sell First Nite buttons to patrons, and generally 'man' the event. Each performance is 45 minutes with a 15 minute break in between. Volunteers can sign up to help out for one or more one-hour shifts between 2PM - 7PM. Please call the church office if you are available to help out with this great event. Thank you!

First Nite Dinner at All Saints

The First Nite 2014 Spaghetti & Meatball Dinner is Tuesday evening. Please plan on attending this fundraiser for our parish.

Annual Reports

It is that time of year when reports need to be generated from all church groups for our annual meeting. Please get your thoughts together and forward these reports to Donna at the church office (allsaints@metrocast.net) . Thank you. 

Food Pantry Needs

Thank you for remembering Life Ministries Food Pantry. We welcome donations of non-perishable items. Please place them in the basket in the narthex. Other items needed are supplies for babies and mothers (diapers size 3-5, wipes, toothbrushes/paste, personal hygiene items, shampoo and clothing for children).
