October 23 and November 6 - Glorious Companions, led by Rev. David Benham
During this series, led by Father David, the class will explore the contributions of significant Anglican figures using the book by Richard H. Schmidt, Glorious Companions: Five Centuries of Anglican Spirituality.
Discussions will include a brief biographical sketch of a subject, a selection of short, representative quotations from his or her writings, and several questions for reflection and discussion.
The exploration of Glorious Companions will bring class participants into direct contact with some of the church's most admired witnesses, while providing both a collection of insightful biographical information and a lasting source of inspiration.

Come join the fun!
On October 12, All Saints' and Christ the King helped 112 patrons with food and served 81 meals at the community dinner.

Donations can be placed in the shopping cart in the hall outside the office. We can always use volunteers as well! Thank you!
