Signup for Choir Camp: August 10-16
We’re excited to host our Choir Camp August 10-16, a fantastic experience for kids who love music and singing! Camp participants will sing, play, and learn together for a week of music and fun. The camp is open to all rising 2nd grade and up! New this year is our Beginner Choir Track (ideal for rising 2nd-4th graders): Perfect for new and younger singers! This special track is designed for children who are just beginning their musical journey. Led by Fortune Picker, singers will learn the basics of music reading, singing, rhythm, and teamwork through fun activities, games, and songs. No previous choir experience is required, just a willingness to sing and have fun! Everyone is welcome—no prior musical experience required. For full details or to register, click here.

Join the Summer Choir!
During the summer months, music in worship will be led by our Summer Choir, a fun and easy way to jump into the music ministry at All Saints! Whether you’ve sung in choirs for years or are simply choir-curious, there’s no commitment beyond showing up for a single Sunday morning. Rehearsals begin at 9:45 AM in the Choir Room (second floor), just before church, and the music is varied, approachable, and prepared in a quick rehearsal each week. Come when you can and help lead worship this summer! The Summer Choir will sing through August 30, except for August 16.
Coffee & Conversation: Sundays at 9:15am
This summer, join others in Thornton Hall on Sundays between 9:15am and 10:00am for a time of casual conversation, community, connection, and coffee (or tea). Feel free to drop in any time and stay as long as you like. Whether you're new to All Saints or have been here for years, this is a wonderful way to start your Sunday morning!
