ANNOUNCEMENTS

Targeted Listening Sessions

The Rector Search Committee invites parishioners to two listening sessions between services in the Heritage Room:

• August 16: Long-tenured parishioners

• August 30: LGBTQ+ parishioners

These conversations will help us explore perspectives not specifically addressed by the Holy Cow survey and deepen our understanding of All Saints. Please join the session that speaks to your experience and share your hopes for our next rector. Contact Ben Reist or any committee member for more information.

There will be NO coffee hour after the 8 a.m. service this Sunday. We need volunteers to host future coffee hours. Please check the notebook at the back of the church to host an upcoming coffee hour to keep this wonderful tradition going!

Virginia+ will be hosting lemonade and cookies again in the Heritage Room after the 10:30 service.

SUNDAY SERVICE INFO AND LECTIONARY

The Collect for the Twelfth Sunday after Pentecost



Almighty God, you have given your only Son to be for us a sacrifice for sin, and also an example of godly life: Give us grace to receive thankfully the fruits of his redeeming work, and to follow daily in the blessed steps of his most holy life; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
