LENTEN NETS FOR LIFE CAMPAIGN
- The Episcopal Church encourages each congregation to give .07% of its operating budget for Nets for Life, supported by Episcopal Relief & Development. For All Saints’ .07% equals $1,523.00, which provides 130 mosquito nets at $12.00 each to help eradicate malaria in seventeen countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.
- Opportunities to donate a net will be available on Sunday mornings and Wednesday evenings. THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY.

All Saints’ is a progressive Episcopal church in the Anglo-Catholic tradition. In the name of Jesus, we strive to build a spiritual home rich in worship, parish life, and community service in gratitude for the fullness of God’s love. Please join us in our prayer and work:
Sustain us, O God, in your Holy Spirit. Give us an inquiring and discerning heart, the courage to will and persevere, a spirit to know and to love you, and the gift of joy and wonder in all your works. Amen.
