ANNOUNCEMENTS

Loving Our Neighbors in Venezuela

Following the recent earthquakes in Venezuela, the Outreach Committee has committed $1,000 from our budget to support relief efforts through Episcopal Relief & Development (ERD), The Episcopal Church’s own disaster response ministry. Now we invite you to join us.


Jesus calls us to love our neighbor — and right now, our neighbors in Venezuela are in need. Any gift you’re able to give, in any amount, helps us respond to that call together as a parish family.


Several easy ways to give:

Place a check in the offering plate or drop a check off at the church office, made out to All Saints Church, with “Earthquake” in the memo line. You can also give online through EasyTithe HERE — select the Outreach Fund and add a note, “Earthquake Relief”. If you’d rather give directly to Episcopal Relief & Development, you’re welcome to do that through the International Disaster Response Fund.


Please give by July 27, 2026.

Thank you for your generosity and for caring for our neighbors near and far.

Join Spudnik on July 11th from 9–11 a.m. for garden harvesting and feel-good community fun!


Check out Spudnik’s harvest from Tuesday—blueberries, green beans, zucchini, yellow squash, Red Norland & Yukon potatoes, strawberries, cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes. All of this will be donated to the pantry. Thank you to Sarah and her girls for their help!


This Saturday, July 11th, we’ll be harvesting more potatoes, planting (cucumbers, green beans, basil), composting, and getting back to our favorite—(endlessly) weeding! We’ll be working with native plants and our garden grow bags.

Stop by anytime you can to learn, help out, and support fresh produce and fruit for the community pantries.

Parish members are invited to join the C4 Celebration Party on July 11, from 4–6 p.m. in the Parish Hall. Meet and congratulate the C4 program’s first graduates.
