Creation Care Upcoming Events

A person is holding a small plant in their hands.

As Christians, we believe all of creation was called into being by the very word of God. The Bible reveals that our Creator calls us to be stewards of creation and to love our neighbors. Inspired by the unsurpassed love God showed us by sending Jesus Christ, God’s only son, to redeem us through his death and resurrection, we respond to God's commands. The Episcopal Diocese of Alabama and the All Saints Creation Care Committee is committed to environmental education, advocacy, and action for our neighbors and all of creation.


Here are some great opportunities to get involved!

We invite you to complete the Congregation Assessment Tool (CAT) , an online survey that will help our leaders understand the strength, vitality, and trends of our parish. The results will help guide decisions about the future of All Saints. We will be sending an email Monday, March 16 , with a unique link to the survey. Please complete it online and share your experiences and priorities for our church. To ensure accurate results, we ask that you not discuss the survey or your responses with others. If you need a paper copy, please contact the church office and we will provide one along with a self-addressed stamped envelope. All responses are completely anonymous , so please feel free to answer candidly. Your participation and honest feedback are essential. Following the close of the assessment April 8th , we will host three Q&A sessions. Dates will be announced soon. If you have questions, please contact the All Saints Rector Search Committee at rectorsearch@allsaintsbhm.org .

A prayer for our new Rector: Almighty God, who knows our needs even before we ask, grant us peace and a spirit of faith, that we may have the wisdom and courage to meet the days to come with steadfast hope and patience; look graciously upon our beloved All Saints’, and send forth your Holy Spirit to guide the search committee, the vestry, and our parish family to be of one heart and one mind, that we may seek and receive a faithful pastor to care for your people and equip us for our ministries.

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!
