Celebrating the Life of Louise Yates
It is with a heavy heart that we share the news of the passing of Louise Yates. Louise, a long-time member who served in various roles throughout the years, had been in a long battle with cancer. She passed away on January 16, surrounded by loved ones. Louise had recently retired from her job at Wilcox Hospital and Clinical Labs Hawaii as a pathology transcriptionist, working for as long as her health would allow. She loved to work with flowers and plants and would often be seen quietly tending to them on property.
A Celebration of Louise's Life will be held on Saturday, January 31, 2015, at 10:00 AM. Visitation will begin at 9:00 AM. Private inurnment and refreshments will follow. Please keep her daughters, Monica and Marci, and their families in your prayers.

Worship Enhancements Available!
All Saints' has portions of the service bulletin in large-size print to make reading along with the service easier for those who prefer it. There are also a few headsets available that will help folks hear the service more clearly, or for those in the back rows that might have a hard time understanding or hearing what is being said. Both items are available through our ushers who will be more than happy to set you up!
The nursery has also been hooked up so that the service can be heard through a speaker in that room. Parents with very young children can now sit and relax with them while they play, and are also able to hear the service.
