Hey Friends

Oh, it was amazing to have everyone back in the attic! It became a joyful, vibrant, and slightly crazy center where youth could be themselves. It felt like having family over for a housewarming party. I spent the summer in the attic, and it felt so empty when it was just me there. Our high schoolers held the first-ever Y'ALL SAINTS meeting, where they had insightful discussions and joyous conversations. The middle schoolers laughed and played in the gym, testing out their math skills and quick reflexes. Thank you to all the parents who helped out, and a special shoutout to the Gaynors for providing a delicious dinner. Providing dinner and volunteering on Sunday nights is one of the most supportive things you can do for the youth here at All Saints’. I invite you to come visit the Attic!

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.
