Our Vacation Bible School theme this year is just the ticket in all of our lives as we adjust to new schedules, changes, trials, and transitions. In anticipation that the church will re-open again at least sometime this summer, we are preparing for a faith-filled adventure where kids discover that Jesus's power pulls us through! After prayerful planning, we believe a July or August, on-site VBS is the best approach this year, and plans are in the works to make it an event to remember! Children and their friends will track through Bible Adventures, explore science and crafts at Imagination Station, worship at Sing & Play Express, experience other energetic Railroad stations, and of course romp in the church backyard in Locomotion Games. More details coming soon!
The Prayer Center will remain open and we ask that our parishioners make prayer a priority. Please, DO NOT meet in groups until further notice.

Very soon we will also be bringing the Men’s Saturday Morning Bible Study back online, as well as enable some of the other small groups (who aren’t already) to continue to meet. Plus, we now have a WEEKLY BIBLE QUIZ available to test your knowledge. Visit our Adult Resources Page for information on the offerings below and more.

Friday, May 15, from Noon-1 p.m, at Southlake Park, Montclair/Dumfries, 5070 Higgins Drive. Pack a picnic lunch (or pickup Chik-Fil-A!), load up the kids, and let's enjoy a hangout out of the hatchback of our cars, distanced within the bounds of our own vehicles, while waving and distantly visiting with All Saints’ Church families and friends. Bring a lawnchair for you, and the kids can sit in the open area of your vehicle! Bring a stroller for the littles. We will keep this no more than the hour so wiggly children can move on with their day. Let's Lunch!

Members of All Saints' Church are using their gifts to bless first responders, family, and friends in our community!

Our Staff and Vestry Members have received them also, along with a grouping for our children, should they need them, when they return to Sunday School!
