Adult Sunday School: Sundays in Lent at 9:15am
Lent is a time to draw nearer to God and to reflect on one's life. Please join Ben and David for a Lenten Bible study on Sundays from 9:15am to 10am in Thornton Hall. We will look at the Gospel readings from the Revised Common Lectionary and examine how the Gospel readings are perhaps calling us closer to God. You are welcome to attend any (or all) of the sessions. Coffee, tea, and morning snacks are available
​
Lenten Program + Dinner: Begins March 12
In this season of Lent, join David and Ben on Wednesday nights from 6-7:30 in Thornton Hall for supper, study, and worship. For our study, we will read Rowan Williams’ Being Christian, a "simple, beautifully written book [that] explores four essential components of the Christian life: baptism, Bible, Eucharist, and prayer.” Williams served as the 104th Archbishop of Canterbury from 2002 to 2012. For more information about Being Christian, visit tinyurl.com/allsaintslent We will gather on March 12, 19, and 26, and April 2 and 9. Each evening will conclude by 7:30 with worship in the Taize style. Please join us as we keep a holy Lent.​​​​

Lunch Packing Event: Saturday, March 29 at 9am
Help us pack 130 lunches for four area shelters in Richmond on Saturday, March 29 at 9am. We are looking for volunteers to shop (expenses are reimbursed), make sandwiches, and pack the lunches. Signup here. If you have any questions, please email Winston.
​
Evensong + Dinner: April 6
Join us for a special Lenten Evensong on Sunday, April 6, at 5:00pm, sung by our Evensong Choir. The service will feature the Evening Canticles by 16th-century master Orlando Gibbons, alongside Percy Whitlock’s 20th-century anthem Be Still, My Soul. The prelude recital will be offered by musicians from FluteForte, a flute choir that rehearses at All Saints on Thursday nights. All are invited to a community dinner in Thornton Hall following the service!
VBS: June 9-13
Join us for an awesome ROAD TRIP at All Saints June 9th-13th from 9 am to 12 pm! ROAD TRIP will be a blend of Bible stories, music, art, outdoor recreation, and even science for a fun and active week for children ages 3 - rising fifth grade. Rising 5th graders will experience a mission-based week with more information to follow. Rising 6th graders have options this year - they can either be part of the special mission-based week with the 5th graders, or they can sign up to volunteer as helpers. Those rising 6th graders who were part of this special week last year can join in again if they bring a friend. Signup for VBS here.

Join the Saintly Stitchers
If you like doing needlework (or not) and like the idea of joining others in the library for a time to just be social while knitting, needlepointing, cross stitching, crocheting, (or none of those), then Saintly Stitchers is for you. We meet on Wednesdays at 2 pm and invite any and all to come sit with us. Stop by each week or when you can. If you would like to share in our prayer square ministry, we have members eager to teach you. Yarn and needles provided.
​
Are You OK?
Our Congregational Care Team wants you to contact a member of the team, Winston, or Ben+ if you or someone you love needs pastoral care or attention. As a community of Saints and friends, we believe in the power of prayer and being there to support you during challenging times. If you are ill, having surgery, hospitalized, mourning, or just struggling with something, please do not hesitate to reach out to the church office. We are here to bring you a meal, extend a helping hand, lend an attentive ear, and offer prayers. We want you to be OK, and help in any way we can.
