Parish Email
The church office produces a short weekly email containing a select list of events and opportunities available that week. We try to keep the length down as much as possible, and have received lots of positive feedback. If you are not receiving these emails, you can email Robbie Boyd at robbie@allsaintsbythesea.org and give your name to be added to the email list. Also, if you change or update your email address, please be sure to let us know!
CFI
(Congregation Formation Initiative): We believe
the Church calls us to be a community of disciples
which will bear embodied witness to Jesus Christ,
not least by being formed more and more into the image
of Christ. Every Sunday night from 6:00 - 8:00 pm,
a group of people meet to work on such formation.
EVENTIDE
AND SUPPER at All Saints-by-the-Sea
Celebrate the Office of Evening Prayer at 6:00 p.m.
in the church. The format is simple, prayerful,
casual, unique and intentional. Following each service,
a simple meal is offered, reminding us of Christ’s
sharing of himself around a communal table. Our worship
together will be marked by elements of the ancient
evening Office which has been shared by Christians
since the 1st century including incense, extended
silence, simple unaccompanied song, canticles for
the evening, shared reflection and fellowship.
Join us each Wednesday in a time of mid-week spiritual
renewal.
