HEARTH Thanksgiving Box Collection
We are once again participating in the HEARTH (Henrico Emergency Assistance to Reduce Threat of Homelessness) program for Thanksgiving food boxes. Completed boxes must be dropped off to All Saints (Thornton Hall) on Thursday, November 18 before 3pm. Choose from the suggested items on the signup or add your own! Completed boxes should come with a $15-20 gift card from Food Lion, Kroger, etc. to purchase a turkey or ham. This is a great project for kids to help with as they can decorate the box and/or include a fun thanksgiving greeting card. Complete details are listed on the signup page.
Saintly Stitchers - Wednesdays at 2pm in the Library
Join us Wednesdays at 2 pm in the library, for knitting, crocheting, or whatever you enjoy doing. Some of us don’t do any of that but enjoy meeting with this congenial group for an hour to get to know one another better and to catch up. If you have wanted to learn to knit, this is the group for you. Needles, yarn, and very patient teachers are provided. We are working on fidgets for a memory care unit if you want to help with a project by sewing on buttons and other fidgety items. We love to meet new people….hope to see you!
Playground Church - Sundays During Worship Service
A new opportunity for children age 3 through 5th grade. Parents can bring their children to the Preschool Playground at the back of the parking lot starting at 10:20 on Sundays mornings. The children will hear a Bible story, do a craft and have fun while enjoying nature and the playground. The children will be brought back to the patio to join their parents for Holy Eucharist. Children are encouraged to bring their own snack and water bottle.
Miss Anne's Music + Movement Drop-In Class

Altar Guild Volunteers Needed
The Altar Guild is in need of some women or men to join! We are a ministry that prepares the church for all services. We meet on Saturday mornings at 9am to prepare for the Sunday services and on Sundays clean up and put away everything after the service. We have 4 teams so we normally have duty one weekend a month. This is an important ministry for the church and a meaningful ministry for yourself. We hope you will consider joining us. If you are interested or have additional questions, please email, Winston.
