Let us walk with Christ in the Desert this Lent . . . 



  • SACRED REST, in an Hour or Less

    Plan to join Deacon Patrice for this coming Lenten season. Every Monday evening from February 27- April 3, ,we will gather on Zoom at 6:30pm for 20 minutes of centering prayer and 30 minutes spent exploring ways to simplify our homes, priorities, schedules,  and information intake so that we can think, pray, rest and just be. Plan to start your week in contemplation and community this coming Lent. No registration required. Watch for the zoom link  as Lent approaches and share it with your friends  and family!

  • Adult Confirmation Classes

    Wednesday Evenings from 6-8pm:  Starting March 1 for 8 weeks

    This group is for adults who wish   to be baptized, confirmed, or received into The Episcopal Church (including those already confirmed in other denominations), and Episcopalians who wish to reaffirm their commitment of faith.  This is a group committed to support one another as we walk together the path of faith, following Jesus. We get to know each other, pray, and study the Christian faith in the Episcopal tradition. We will read together, “Walk in Love” Episcpal Beliefs and Practices. Fr. Dan Burner and parishioner Michael King are the mentors. To reserve your place, email cvalentine@allsaintsoncentral.org. 


  • Evening Prayer in Lent

    Please join us in celebrating Evening Prayer every Wednesday in March from 9:00 to 9:15pm in the Chapel.  Evening Prayer will begin with a Lucernarium, the service of light, and continue with singing of canticles and prayers which will draw us not only into our own devotion but place us in the midst of the eternal prayer of the Church.  The full choir will be present as we commit ourselves and the entire parish to Christ's protection.

     

     

  • Adult Formation:  Sundays at 9am in St. Barbara

    Living Discipleship: Celebrating the Saints

    Sundays, February 26, March 5, 12, 19, 26

     

    Join the formation leaders of All Saints’ this Lent to learn more about the saints of the Church. Living Discipleship: Celebrating the Saints is a five-week exploration of the riches of God’s glorious inheritance made real in the lives of the saints who have gone before us. The saints witness to us what the life of faith looks like, lived out in real time, and they challenge us to live out our own discipleship more fully and fearlessly. They will inspire your Lenten journey. Join us in community to learn from these spiritual masters.
