THIS SUNDAY, the Men's Breakfast Committee will be serving individually packaged donuts and fresh, hot coffee in the courtyard, between the church and the Parish Hall, starting at 9am! It's not exactly the full breakfast buffet All Saints was known for prior to the pandemic, but it's our first step back in that direction, offering donuts safely outdoors with plenty of space for social distancing! And following the 10am service, the coffee will be refreshed for a "Coffee Hour" for anyone who'd like to gather in the courtyard and catch up with friends at church!

On Pentecost Sunday, All Saints moved into Phase 2 of our removal of COVID restrictions inside the church. Following the direction of the CDC and the state of Florida, with the approval of the Bishop, masks are now optional for wearing inside the church on Sunday mornings and at all other worship services. We will continue to ENCOURAGE the wearing of masks inside the church, especially for anyone who has not yet been vaccinated or has an immunocompromised condition, and for the time being, Fr. Donavan will continue to wear a mask when distributing Holy Communion.

All Saints has also removed social distancing ribbons from all pews in the front of the church. This is to encourage anyone who has been fully vaccinated to use the open pews, while allowing for more space in socially distanced pews at the middle and the back of the church. For the time being, ribbons will remain for social distancing seating in those seating areas.

Finally, on Pentecost Sunday, Fr. Donavan made COMMUNION WINE available to anyone who felt safe receiving it. Consecrated wine will continue to be offered in small silver chalices for intinction (dipping) only. Two Eucharistic ministers will be stationed at each side of the steps leading up to the altar to allow anyone who'd like to dip the consecrated host into the chalice after Fr. Donavan or another clergy person has placed it in their hands.
