Youth Group Events

Shrove Tuesday Dinner

On March 4, The All Saints' Youth Group is serving a Pancake Dinner from 5:30 to 7pm. Dinner includes homemade pancakes (gluten free available), sausage, dessert and beverages. Admission is free but donations will be welcomed. Parishioners are encouraged to contribute fruit salad and maple syrup. (Sign up in the undercroft). Bring your friends, family and neighbors. This is a fundraiser for their Mission trip to Boston in April.

 

 

CityReach Trip - Used Clothing Needed

Members of the youth group will be participating in CityReach, an overnight urban outreach program on the weekend of April 11. They will have an opportunity to learn firsthand about homelessness from people who have experienced it. Prior to the trip, they will be gathering together used  clean clothing to take with them. There will be a collection bin at the back of the church for donations for comfortable, rugged clothing, mostly men's large sizes, spring to summer weight.  Hooded sweatshirts and sweat pant are good examples.

Habitat for Humanity 

In March, Megan Lander will commit seven days to Lesley University 14th annual Alternative Spring Break. She will be volunteering for Habitat for Humanity in Columbia, SC on their mission of bringing people together to build homes, communities and hope. Throughout the week, she will work side by side with future homeowners and residents while learning about important issues such as rural poverty and affordable housing in the US. As a participant, one of Megan's major responsibilities is to help raise funds to support the trip. Any donation will be a great help. Please direct these funds to the church office and we will see that Megan receives them. 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).
