Does your child love to sing? The All Saints Junior Choristers is a wonderful opportunity for young voices to learn music, build confidence, and take part in worship. Rehearsals will take place Sundays during coffee hour (right after the 10am service) and last about 30 minutes. The current season concluded on Pentecost Sunday, June 8, and a new schedule will be available later this summer.
Singers who commit to being a part of the chorus will learn and practice the fundamentals of choral singing in a supportive environment under the direction of All Saints’ Director of Music, Steven Thomson. In addition to his work at All Saints, Steven is a seasoned educator and serves as the Senior Choral Director of the Sing! program at the Music Academy of the West and as the Chorus Manager for The Santa Barbara Symphony. He is excited to bring this experience to the youth of All Saints! All registered singers will receive robes and cottas and will have opportunities to sing from the chancel for special services throughout the year.
All children ages 9-14 are welcome! (Exceptions for singers under age 9 may be considered on a case-by-case basis) Come be part of this joyful musical ministry.
For more details or to sign up, contact Steven Thomson (steven@asbts.org) We can’t wait to sing with you!

| Please join us on Monday, October 19th at 5:30 in the Parish House for our October Book Club and Potluck. We will be discussing All That’s Unseen: An Appalachian Memoir by Emilee Hackney. Please bring a dish to share and the beverage of your choice. We welcome and encourage new attendees!
In her luminous debut, Emilee Hackney offers both a love letter to and a reckoning of the place that made her—a story of losing her faith, finding her way back to her Appalachian home, and discovering what endures. Born and raised deep in the hollers of the Appalachian Mountains, Emilee Hackney knew little beyond the ridgelines and coalfields of southwest Virginia. As an eighth-generation Appalachian, her childhood was steeped in the stories of her grandparents—tales of the coal mines’ brutal grip and the way the land, both beautiful and unforgiving, never quite let anyone go. At fourteen, Emilee meets Sam, a senior at her high school, who offers her a glimpse at a promising future together. But as they begin attending services at Deliverance Christian Church as a couple, Emilee is thrust into the radical realm of Pentecostalism. In a culture where marriage at nineteen isn’t uncommon, Emilee is engaged to Sam. Eager to make her relationship work, she embraces the extremist doctrines of the religion, submitting herself fully to God, to Sam, and to a life of repentance. But what she doesn’t yet know is the man she plans to marry is not who he claims to be. Years later, Emilee finds herself isolated from friends, family, and her own sense of truth. Wracked with shame and self-doubt, she reaches a breaking point. On the verge of spiraling out of control, in a stunning act of defiance and hope, she applies to Harvard; against all odds, she is accepted. From the magisterial mountains of Tazewell to the storied halls of Cambridge, Emilee begins the arduous process of reinventing herself and her relationships with her home, faith, and values against the backdrop of the divisive 2016 election. All That’s Unseen is Emilee Hackney’s fiercely honest memoir about spiritual entrapment, hard-won liberation, and the courage to reclaim her voice after she had been taught to stay silent. Looking ahead…for our November 16th Book Club meeting and potluck, we will be reading Four Letters of Love by Niall Williams. If you have any questions, please contact Karen Dietz at kedietz56@gmail.com
