Hey Friends

It was wonderful to see everyone last Sunday at the Youth Open House! A lot of information was shared. If you weren't able to get the Youth At a Glance Calendar, the Youth Ministry brochure, or the Parent/Youth involvement form, please reach out, and I would be more than happy to send them to you! The most important takeaway from the Open House is that we are cultivating a village here at All Saints'. The youth at All Saints' are not just the future of the church; they are the present. We have the joy of embarking on this journey together, and as a village, let's shape the future together!

One Week Launch

We are just one week away from getting back into the swing of things! Formation SNL and Y'all Saints will kick off on September 8th! I’m really looking forward to it. Join us for formation from 10:20 AM to 11:05 AM in the attic on the 3rd floor of the Pritchett Center. SNL and Y'all Saints will run from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM, and dinner will be provided.



Remind

Stay up to date with All Saints' Youth Ministry events and news through our new Remind groups! We have three groups: middle school, high school, and a general group. Each group has its own code:

Middle School: asms99

High School: ashs4

General (for everyone, regardless of grade): asyth

To join one of these groups, text 81010 and enter the code for the group you want to join. Note that Remind messages are limited to 144 characters, so updates will be brief. For detailed information, please refer to the newsletter.

Parent involvement

If you are a parent and are looking to be apart in youth ministry this year well I have exciting information to tell you. There are multiple ways for you to be apart of youth ministry here at All Saints'. Parents can be involved by providing dinner for SNL and Y'all Saints, being a chaperone for Outings, mission trips and pilgrimages, they can also be drivers for events and being a helper at SNL.

Youth Vestry

The Youth Vestry is a leadership council of ten youth that casts a vision for the youth program and for the youth’s engagement with the broader parish. The vestry includes one representative from each component of the youth program (morning formation, SNL, acolytes, and other worship leaders, a member of the social media guild) and from each grade level (9th-12th plus an “at large” member). The vestry meets once a semester (fall, spring, and summer) for a pre-scheduled Zoom meeting to discuss the state of the youth program and envision what’s next. They may be called upon at times throughout the program year to meet for a brief Zoom call to discuss a particular matter.



Saints and Service this Sunday! Join us this Sunday after the 10:00am service in Ellis Hall for Saints and Service Sandwich making! It's a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community, enjoy some fellowship, and create delicious sandwiches for those in need. We look forward to seeing you there!

Wednesday Nights at All Saints' is a cherished night that brings our community together. As we gather in the warm, inviting atmosphere, we share a meal and break bread, fostering connections and friendships. This weekly event not only nourishes our bodies but also strengthens the bonds among us, creating a sense of belonging and unity within our parish. Wednesday nights 5-7pm, we would love to see you there!

PARENT CORNER

Parents Needed for SNL Dinner!

It's that time again, SNL begins September 8th which means our parent meal sign-up is back! There is so much that goes into Sunday's in The Attic and one of the best ways that parents can help is by providing our meal during SNL. This can be anything from a homemade meal, take-out, or catering...whatever is easiest for you! This is usually for about 20-25 people.

Please take a look at the available dates and sign-up for a time that works best for you! Thank you so much for your dedication to our youth program, we couldn't do it without awesome parents like you!
