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.

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.
