Youth Group Shoe Drive for Soles4Souls | | | |
|
|
Join All Saints’ youth groups by donating gently used shoes.
All shoes will be brought to Soles4Soles where they will sort and send them to micro-enterprise programs in developing countries around the world. Soles4Souls programs, 4Opportunity, 4Relief, and 4EveryKid, aim to make a positive difference on the planet and in people's economic, educational, physical, and psychosocial well-being.
Since 2006, more than 83 million pairs of shoes and pieces of clothing have helped create opportunities for people across 129 countries.
If you don’t have any shoes to donate, monetary donations will be passed along to help Sole4Souls ship the shoes collected to their partners around the world, as well as help to fund their 4EveryKid program (where every $20 collected provides a new pair of shoes to a child experiencing homelessness in the United States).
Visit soles4souls.org for more information.

Confirmation, Reception, and Reaffirmation for Adults | | |
|
In The Episcopal Church, Confirmation is the sacramental rite by which we make an adult affirmation of the promises and commitments made on our behalf as children. Often, it is our youth who take part in Confirmation. However, any adults who have not been confirmed may do so as well. Additionally, if you have been confirmed, and wish to be received into The Episcopal Church, you may do so as part of the Confirmation process. And if for any reason you wish to now reaffirm your faith, you can take part as well.
Our Youth Confirmation Class of '23-'24 will soon begin preparation for the sacramental rite of Confirmation in May of next year. Any adults who wish to be confirmed, received or reaffirmed will begin adult classes soon.
If you are interested or have questions, contact Father Mark at mark@allsaintsglenrock.org and put 'Adult Confirmation' in the subject line. All are welcome to inquire!
