Continuing Confirmation/Lenten Classes
Wednesdays at 5:45 pm
The Season of Lent has officially started, and Rev. Mary continues to lead Confirmation/Lenten classes through March. It is a great opportunity for all church members to take part in Christian education. Although the classes are designed to prepare candidates for confirmation, the material is of interest to everyone, and especially for those who may need a "refresher". Who are We? What does church membership mean? Why live a life of faith? These are just a few of the topics being covered.
The classes are held in the rectory living room from 5:45 - 7:30 p.m., on Wednesdays. Candidates for confirmation must attend all classes. All other members or interested persons can attend any or all of the classes. For more information and to view the schedule of topics, go the "Our Ministries" tab on the church website and click on "Christian Formation", or click HERE to go directly to the webpage now. For more information on being Baptized, Confirmed or Reaffirmed, please contact Rev. Mary at 634-9343, or e-mail her.

In Search of Grants
As many members know, All Saints' relies heavily on the use of grants to fund our youth and family outreach activities in the community such as the FiF dodgeball tournaments, movie nights on the lawn, and Friday Night Sports Nights in the Gym. We also received funding for new lighting in the gym and the Memorial Hall folding doors.
We are now looking into the possibility of obtaining grants for refurbishing the gym kitchen as well as other major projects for organ repair, roofing, fumigation and painting. If you or someone you know would be willing to help share their talents with grant writing, please contact Chris at 822-4267, or email her.

First Sunday in Lent
Almighty God, whose blessed Son was led by the Spirit to be tempted by Satan; Come quickly to help us who are assaulted by many temptations; and, as you know the weaknesses of each of us, let each one find you mighty to save; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
