August 1, 2023

August is PACKED with so many exciting events at All Saints and thus quite possibly the longest newsletter ever! I hope you all get a chance to attend and connect. A special note: the annual Kanuga trip will be held September 29 - October 1. I had such an amazing time last year in the "young adults cabin" celebrating in nature (and swimming in ice cold water) with all who attended. I am hoping even more of us are able to attend this year. Please reach out to me at youngadults@allsaintsatlanta.org if you're planning to attend and would like to be in a YA cabin. There are also scholarships available if needed, so please reach out to discuss those as well.

Interested in supporting All Saints' Youth?

The statistic we always hear is that is takes at least 5 meaningful relationships with adults at church for youth to want to stay involved in church beyond high school. Are you ready to become one of those adults in the life of our youth?

We are looking for youth formation teachers for the 2023-2024 year! You would have the opportunity to teach our 6^th graders, 7^th graders, 8^th graders, or high school classes! Beginning in September, you would be committing to spending Sunday mornings teaching our youth (curriculum is provided) and building meaningful relationships with them throughout the formation year. If you can't commit to every Sunday, grab a friend and teach alongside them!

If you are interested or want to learn more, please reach out to Hope Westervelt (hwestervelt@allsaintsatlanta.org) and we can chat!

Young Adult WhatsApp Group
