MESSAGE FROM THE RECTOR

This Sunday will be a day of celebration at All Saints! I am pleased to announce that we have received a remarkable legacy gift, a blessing that reflects the deep love and faithfulness of those who have been part of our parish’s story. While the specifics—including who gave the gift and its amount—will be shared on Sunday, we will come together in gratitude to give thanks for this extraordinary generosity.

To help guide us in this time of celebration and discernment, we are honored to welcome The Rev. Dina van Klaveren, Canon for Stewardship and Development, as our guest preacher. Canon Dina brings deep wisdom and experience in helping congregations reflect on generosity and faithful stewardship, and her presence with us will be a gift.

I invite you to join us for this special Sunday as we rejoice, give thanks, and listen for how the Spirit is leading us forward. This is a moment of joy for All Saints, and I look forward to celebrating with you!

See you in church!

Andrew +

PS: please be sure to read the announcement below about our Lenten Study series starting Sunday, March 9

Also, NEW FLASH DRIVE, from February 23 - March 9th, with the proceeds going to the Palisades fire victims through St. Matthew's Episcopal Church. Donate online or by check. Please give generously!

What a Spirit-filled and joyful day at All Saints! Last Sunday Bishop Carrie Schofield-Broadbent confirmed and received nine people into the Episcopal Church, marking a sacred step in their faith journeys.

Join Us for a Six-Week Lenten Study: The Walk by Adam Hamilton

Lent is a season of reflection, growth, and deepening our walk with Christ. This year, we invite you to journey together through The Walk by Adam Hamilton, a six-week study focused on five essential spiritual practices: Worship & Prayer, Study, Serve, Give, and Share.

• Wednesday Evenings at 6:30 PM: Join us in the sanctuary for Stations of the Cross, a meaningful time of prayer and reflection before the Lenten Study. CLICK HERE to learn more about Stations of the Cross
• Sunday Mornings at 9:15 AM (March 9 - April 13): A structured class exploring the core themes of the book.
• Wednesday Evenings at 7:00 PM (March 12 - April 16): A deeper, interactive experience expanding on Sunday’s lessons—designed to enhance but not required for continuity. A simple supper will be provided.

This study is open to all and will provide a meaningful way to engage with Scripture, faith, and one another during the Lenten season. Books will be available for purchase, or you may acquire your own copy.

Come walk with us as we grow together in faith. For more information, contact Father Andrew.

This year, we voted to donate $2500 to be split between Community Ministries of Calvert County, Boys and Girls Club of SOMD, and our All Saints Puerto Mission. Thanks to all who supported our fundraising efforts throughout 2024!
