ALL SAINTS SUNDAY
An Amazing Day of Remembrance and Celebration
Children and teens shared in our glorious All Saints Sunday celebration in a variety of ways. We joined the procession, carrying flowers to lay down in front of the images of the saints displayed on the altar; we gathered in front of the altar to listen to Mother Mary Ellen's uplifting all-ages sermon; and, our teens offered the Prayers of the People, which they helped to write. So much joy as we remembered those who have gone before us to light our path and encourage us on our journey!

NEWS FROM GODLY PLAY
Fall 2026
For every beginning there is an ending and for every ending there is a beginning… This is part of the Circle of the Church Year Liturgical lesson, where the children learn of the three Mysteries; Christmas, Easter and Pentecost and we set expectations for the entire year.
We told the story of the Holy Family. This story is a simple story that helps children connect Baby Jesus in the manger to the Risen Christ they hear about at Easter.
We told the Second Creation story: the “Falling Apart and Coming Back Together in a New Way. The lesson focuses on the Garden of Eden, introduces the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life, and how Adam and Eve human choices changed the relationship between God, people, and the world.
However, “God gave Adam and Eve a gift when things fell apart. They could now take the differences they saw and put them together in new ways. They could not make something from nothing like God did, but they could sometimes make something good from what they knew.
We continued with the children’s favorite stories: The Flood and the Ark, The Great Family, Exodus and the 10 Best Ways.
November will bring some stories we have not told in a while:
The Exile and Return (November 8th). This story is a story of resilience and
perseverance. A story that it is still happening today. When people are forced from their homes and lands because of wars, displacement, famine… and they go to a new place wondering if they will ever return or not, wondering about the new places and if they will be welcomed.
Jonah and the Whale (November 15th): Jonah is a favorite story because of the Whale. However, Jonah is a prophet, and prophets are people so close to God and God is so close to them, that they know what they need to do. But Jonah doesn’t want to do it. God is loving and Jonah wants Nineveh (his enemies) punished. We need to remember that God’s love and mercy are not exclusive, and we need to ask the question: Am I okay with God loving the people I find hard to love?
Thanksgiving Story (November 22): On Being Grateful and Thankful. This is a story told in the Godly Play way based on the UTO Godly Play Story from Christ Episcopal Church, Cedar Rapids IA.
The Church year will start on the First Sunday of Advent, on November 29th.
However, we are still in the great, growing and green days of the Church Year: Summer is over, Fall is here … and “Now the days are really short. It gets dark very early. It looks as if the light is just about to go out. Right at that time, when the light seems to be coming to an end, we reach Advent. The year ends, and it begins again. It is time to get ready to enter the mystery of Christmas.”

YOUTH MEALS WITH MEANING SERVE DAY
Joy and Service Hand in Hand:
When Are We Doing This Again?!
On All Saints Sunday (Nov 01) 15 teens plus several adults gathered to share food, personal items and -- most importantly -- smiles of welcome at our Meals with Meaning serve day. We started with some conversation about why we serve (being Jesus' helping hearts and hands in the world), how serving blesses us, and how we are all beloved, chosen and called, including our guests whose gifts may be more hidden because of the daily survival challenges they face. We looked at The Beatitudes from our Gospel lesson of the day and talked about what Jesus and our guests have in common (homelessness, poverty, people's negative attitudes, etc).
Then, off to work! Gena Vallee coordinated our set up which included food (burgers, baked beans, sandwiches, desserts, water, etc) and personal care items such as rain ponchos (it was pouring most of the time!), tee shirts, and other items. Despite the weather we had a steady stream of guests, all of whom were grateful to receive the food and other items.
The best part (other than serving those in need) -- Wanting to do this again! Stay tuned and see below for another opportunity to serve!
Many, many thanks to all our teens who participated and to our parents who worked in the background to keep everything running smoothly. And, of course, to our beloved Gena and Rose Vallee who are the heart and soul of this ministry!

CONFIRMATION CLASS: LIFE IN CHRIST
(Grades 6, 7, 8 and others)
Confirmation Class meets every Sunday at 9:10am during the school year in the Conference Room (unless otherwise noted).
Our journey to Confirmation for young people is a three-year program. Our program seeks to nurture the faith of our young people as they prepare for their high school years and beyond, giving them a solid foundation for a Christ-centered life. The Confirmation Class experience may also include retreats, service opportunities and other activities. All young people in grades 6, 7 and 8 can participate in and benefit from this class, regardless of whether or not they choose to be confirmed. Older teens, those transferring from other churches, or any others who are interested are most welcome to participate as well.
During Confirmation we explore:
-- The Bible and the stories that shape our life and faith
-- A life of prayer and worship led by and replenished by the Holy Spirit
-- A life of ministry and service as disciples of Jesus
-- The Anglican/Episcopal tradition in all its breadth and depth
ANY QUESTIONS?

Conversation, Reflection and Prayer -- with lots of Fun and Fellowship!
Upper Room Time meets at 9:45am in the Youth Room during the program year. All teens 6th - 12th grade are warmly invited to join us!

TOPIC: Talents and Treasures

TOPIC: TBA! Stay tuned!
| | |
WHAT DO WE DO DURING UPPER ROOM TIME?
Following our pattern of Pause, Listen, Reflect, Pray and Go,
we build on our previous themes of
What will you do with your one wild and precious life?
(based on Mary Oliver's poem The Summer Day) and
"What makes you come alive?"
(from a quote by theologian and civil rights leader Howard Thurman)
"Building Beloved Community"
In conjunction with St. Gregory's church-wide Beloved Community initiative we worked on how our lives and gifts reflect God's love in the world.
Theme for 2026-2027 -- "I matter. I belong. I love."
We will delve more deeply into our core identity statement:
I am a beloved child of God. (I matter.)
I am a member of the Body of Christ. (I belong.)
I have a unique calling and purpose in this world. (I love.)
As we have in the past, we continue to use some Benedictine practices to bring more balance, proportion and harmony into our lives.
| | |
SCENES FROM THE UPPER ROOM...
On Sunday, November 08 we had conversation about choosing whom to serve, based on the Old Testament reading from Joshua. We began as always with quiet meditation time, listening to some Taize chants. Then we talked about the people we follow in our daily lives (parents, teachers, social media personalities, celebrities, etc) and how they influence our choices. In Bible lesson, Joshua calls upon the Israelites to make a choice: follow the one true God and put away idols and false gods. Using our giant Jenga game as a metaphor for building our lives on weak foundations, we reminded ourselves about the importance of making Jesus our firm foundation, the basis from which all our choices flow. We then closed in prayer, asking God to help us in choosing the best foundation.
| | |
OUR CLOSING PRAYER FOR THIS SUNDAY
Lord, there are so many things competing for our attention and trying to tell us who we should be and what we should do.
Help us to push past the noise, the labels, and the pressure to fit in.
Give us the courage to stand up for our faith, especially at times when we might have to do it alone.
Help us today to choose You, the one true foundation of love
and the support we need to build our lives.
Amen.

Attendance at six preparation sessions (using materials from the Absalom Jones Center for Racial Healing and the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta) will be required for all attendees.
An informational session for parents and teens will be held on
