Sundays in Lent
Maybe you have seen a 'Children’s Pew Art' sheet in your pew? These are meant to be a simple way to invite our young friends to draw what they see in church, picture something they hear in the Bible reading, write a letter to God, ask a question, or create a prayer. We share in nurturing their spiritual lives, just as we promise at baptism. They learn by watching and listening. They absorb what is going on around them. So enjoy watching your child draw on them. You can take yours home to reflect on during the week, or let it stay for someone else to find. We truly love discovering these colorful reflections of faith all over the church!
Stories on the Way: Stories and Poetry for Lent Our faith is built on a collection of stories shared over generations. Jesus taught in stories. Stories are interwoven in our identities as beloved children of God. As we make our way through the season of Lent, you are invited to join us for three evenings of sharing stories and poems on Wednesdays, February 25, March 4, and March 11 . We will begin each evening at 5:30 with a simple supper. We will close out each evening with Compline (a short night prayer service). Use the link below to let us know if you will be joining us for dinner and if you will be bringing children. The Wednesday Atrium will be available. Please RSVP for dinner here Each evening, we will be joined by featured storytellers and poets. You are also invited to bring your own poetry or a favorite poem to share. Your host: The Rev. Kelley Hudlow Featured storytellers: February 25 Repentance The Rev. Kelley Hudlow The Rt. Rev. Kee Sloan March 4 Mercy The Very Rev.

The Very Rev. Richard T. Lawson III, dean of Saint John’s Cathedral in Denver, has been elected the 13th diocesan bishop of Alabama. He was chosen on the first ballot at today’s special convention at the Cathedral Church of the Advent. Following the required consent process of The Episcopal Church, Bishop elect Lawson will be ordained and consecrated on Saturday, June 27, 2026, in Birmingham. We give thanks for all who served in this search and ask for continued prayers during this time of transition.
We will have an all ages Bingo Night in the Great Hall on Wednesday, February 11 from 5:00 to 6:30pm . We are leaning into a Valentine theme and making it a relaxed evening for all generations to gather, play, and enjoy time together. This timing also works well if you are coming before or after choir rehearsals. We will have Roly Poly sandwiches, chips, and dessert available, with a suggested donation of $5 to help us plan for food. Come for a round or stay for the whole evening. Everyone is welcome.
Introducing Saints Social Clubs! Looking for a fun, easy way to connect with fellow parishioners? Saints Social Clubs brings adults together once a month to enjoy great food and great company. Here’s how it works: • Complete the short preference questionnaire HERE • Small clubs will be assigned in early March • Each club decides how they want to gather, in homes, at restaurants, or a mix of both. Each participant can choose the vibe for their assigned month • Days, times, and locations are set by each individual club • No pressure, no agenda, just a social gathering with fellow parishioners Whether you’re new to All Saints or have been here for years, this is a wonderful way to meet new people and strengthen connections within our church community. If you have any questions connect with Ginny May, ginmay@bellsouth.net
POSTPONED! Woody Register’s plane decided Philadelphia was the final destination, so our Sunday afternoon gathering today is postponed. We will share new details if/when they become available.
Faith and the Modern Family is expanding! We welcome everyone no matter where you are in your spiritual life. This Sunday we are using a short video clip to explore Jesus’ message about being there for each other through the visions of a Jewish comedian, Judd Apatow. We are celebrating faith as it evolves, as we test it, and even throw it around a little bit. Put on your construction hat and join us every Sunday in rm 223 at 9:45ish!
Hello folks. I’d love to invite you to something a little different. Being With is a course exploring Christian faith and its relevance to our lives now —but it’s not your typical course. It’s a space for anyone who’s curious about faith, exploring Christianity, or maybe just wondering where they stand with it all. You might be returning to faith after some time away or asking whether what you once believed still holds true. Or maybe you’ve had experiences of church that left you unsure. Being With offers something gentler—a place where you can listen, share and reflect alongside others, with no pressure and no judgement. What makes it special is that we explore faith through real-life stories and honest conversation—not lectures or right answers. Whatever your story, Being With offers a gentle, honest space to reflect. It’s not about having the right answers—it’s about real conversations, shared experiences, and discovering how to live a faith that feels true to you. We'd love to have you with us. Kelley+ The Rev. Kelley Hudlow Associate Rector Who is this course for? This course is for people new to the Christian faith, returning to the Christian faith, or wanting to explore their faith. This course is also for anyone wanting to be confirmed or received at the Bishop's visitation on May 10, 2026. When will this be offered? The course is 10 sessions and will be offered in person at the church, on Sundays from 3:30-5 pm . We will meet on February 1, 8, 15, 22; March 1, 8, 15; April 12, 19, 26.
