Welcome to The Rev. Kelley Hudlow - Priest in Charge

A poster for a summer sunday worship on june 4 and july 30

Hello folks.


My name is Kelley Hudlow, and I am glad to join All Saints as your Priest-in-Charge. A priest-in-charge leads a church for a defined period, and I will serve in this capacity until the vestry calls an interim rector. As the priest-in-charge, I will support the work of the staff and lay leadership and will preach and lead worship. I began my work in the office on July 15 and my first Sunday will be August 3. I am serving on a part time basis and will typically be in the office on Mondays and Tuesdays.


I am the full time Instructor of Preaching at Bexley Seabury Seminary, which is a low residency Episcopal seminary based in Chicago. I previously served as the Canon for Vocations and Community Engagement for the Diocese of Alabama. I have served churches in transition across Alabama. Before joining the diocese, I practiced law in Tuscaloosa and Birmingham. 


In 2024, I completed a Master of Arts in Theopoetics and Writing, focusing on preaching. I will begin a Doctor of Ministry program in Biblical Interpretation and Proclamation at Candler School of Theology at Emory in August 2025. I love science fiction, art, and all things related to space. I live in the Avondale neighborhood of Birmingham with my spouse, Dr. Shanti Weiland, who teaches English at the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa. We live with the “Ginger Brothers,” an orange cat named Julien and a corgi named Brother Juniper. 


I look forward to getting to know y’all in the coming weeks.


God’s peace,


Kelley+

What a summer it’s been for Fiddlesticks Music! From late May until now, we’ve been singing, dancing, and drumming our way across Birmingham, bringing people together from all walks of life into one joyful circle of music. Every time we sing with children, we’re shining the light of Christ in our community, breaking down barriers and building connections among families of many different stories, cultures, and resources. This summer alone, we’ve touched hundreds of lives through the power of music. Highlights from the season: In May, our Fiddlesticks Family Sing-along Concert filled the Great Hall with over 70 voices, young and old, singing in harmony. In June, we celebrated the National Day of Making at the McWane Science Center by making music together and helping little ones craft their own instruments. We returned to McWane to mark the 10th Anniversary of Itty Bitty Magic City with joyful songs and play. At the Birmingham Folk Festival, our classes at the Avondale Library had children and caregivers singing and moving together all afternoon. We brought free demo classes to the Homewood Library, introducing even more families to the joy of Music Together®. And all spring, we partnered with UAB Head Start, bringing music-making to families who might not otherwise have that opportunity. At Fiddlesticks Music Together®, we provide weekly 45-minute classes for children from infancy through age eight, following a research-based curriculum designed to nurture musical growth and create meaningful connections. But our calling is much bigger than that. Our doors are open to families of all identities, abilities, and ages—because music, and the love that pours out through All Saints, is for everyone. Fall Registration Registration is open for FALL Session 2025! The 11-week fall session is September 7 - November 22 . These Fiddlesticks Music classes are perfect for infants to 5-year olds and their "grown-ups." Parents, grandparents, or nannies come make music with your little one through singing, dancing, and musical play! When you register, make sure to let us know that you are a member at All Saints, to receive 20% off of the $195 tuition. We also have need-based scholarship options. Learn more or to register for the session today: www.fiddlesticks-music.com .

Dear All Saints' Family, On behalf of the vestry, Alexa McElroy and I, your wardens, are very pleased to announce we have called the Rev. Ed Bacon to be our Interim Rector . We have been in conversation with him since late July and have found him to be a person with great spiritual and practical gifts. In this time of transition I believe Ed will be the pastor who can bring us together, and help us prepare to embody Christ’s transforming love with our next rector. He will be with us on Game Day, September 7, working with staff in the meantime. September 28 will be his first regular Sunday at All Saints . With love and prayers, Martha Bains Senior Warden
