Sharing God's Blessings:
Contribute Regularly

We are called by God to practice our stewardship of what we have been given daily. By doing so this becomes a lifestyle as Paul instructs: "On the first day of every week, each one of you is to put aside and save whatever extra you earn." 1 Corinthians 16:2

Guest Soloist - Cali Jacobs

We welcome Calysta Jacobs as a guest soloist this morning. Calysta (Cali) Jacobs has been an integral part of the Wolfeboro community and its many music programs all her life. Cali is a 2015 graduate of Kingswood Regional High School, and received the Wolfeboro Friends of Music William H. Gibson Fund Scholarship Award, for musicianship and service over her high school years. She also received a WFOM scholarship in her junior year to attend the UNH Summer Youth Music Session (SYMS), involving intensive daily programs in piano, choir and musical theater. At KRHS, Cali stood out as a soprano in the honors chorus, and as first chair on the Baritone Sax in the honors band. Her particular passion has been drama and musical theater, and as a member of the KRHS Thespian Society Troupe #921, she has played many roles in both the high school and WACAC's Kingswood Summer Children's Theater, including "Aladdin", "Grease", "The Music Man", and "Legally Blonde". Her high school career culminated in playing the lead role of Maria in "The Sound of Music", in the fall of 2014. In this past year, Holly has had the distinct privilege of coaching her in voice and beginning piano. Cali is excited to be attending Plymouth State University this fall, with a major in Musical Theater.

Vestry Ministry Team Needs

Your vestry has four ministry teams it is looking for you as a saint of All Saints' to consider serving on:


 

* Hospitality Team - The group that welcomes, invites and coordinates fellowship opportunities to welcome one another and build community through coffee hours and events across the congregation.

* Missions Team - The group that educates, informs, advocates for and motivates the congregation about mission outreach projects, including recommendations to the vestry about disbursements from our mission fund.

* Worship Team - The group that serves in an advisory capacity to the rector and minister of music to provide meaningful worship opportunities for the congregation and community from the scheduling and style of worship, worship space, to recruitment and training of special ministers of worship and the assistance of Christian education regarding worship.

* Altar Guild - This group prepares the altar for services, cleans altar pieces and linens.


 

If you have gifts and interest in these vital support ministries, God just might be calling you to share them. The vestry will approve new* participation in these teams, so if you are interested please speak to any vestry member. 


 

*[Hospitality has a number of current people serving, but would love to add more]
