Vestry Meeting– In Person This Tuesday @ 7PM
The Vestry will meet this Tuesday at 7PM in the fellowship hall. In order to review and discuss the bids we have received for the Parish Hall floor.
Second Quarter Mission- The San Souci Foodbank
Each quarter of the year, All Saints has committed to come alongside a particular ministry in town to pray for them and to support their work. Our second quarter mission for 2023 is the Sans Souci Food Pantry
You can support this important work through (a) monetary donations (remember to place “3rd Quarter Mission” on the FOR line of your check); or (b) you can also donate food items such as dry or canned goods. We will collect these items on the Missions Table in the Parish Hall and make sure that they get to the food bank.
Below is a list of needed items that you can donate to help this important ministry in our community.
- Applesauce
- Canned Beans
- Canned Chicken
- Canned Fish (tuna, salmon)
- Canned Meat (Spam, ham)
- Canned Vegetables
- Cooking Oil
- Crackers

An Afternoon of Song- Friday, May 8th at 1PM
Bobbi and Vocal Matrix (the show choir of which Bobbi is a part) will be performing at Artisphere in downtown Greenville on Friday, May 8th, at 1 PM. The performance will be held on the stage outside the Grand Bohemian Hotel. For more information, see Bobbi.
Also, with that in mind, a big congratulations to Bobbi and Vocal Matrix, who took second place among mid-sized choruses in Region 14, and placed third overall in the multi-regional competition!
Weekly Web Feature – Check It Out (www.allsaintsgreenville.com)
Each week, the newsletter will feature a different aspect of our web site for you to try out. It is our hope that this will bring to your attention features that you may not have noticed before and, at the same time, will help familiarize you with the site as a whole. So be sure to check out our Web Feature section in each edition of the newsletter.
In light of our sermon series on Christ’s burial, this week’s web feature is the REC Foreign Missions Page. Here you will find current updates from the Reformed Episcopal board of Foreign Missions. These updates will include information about various REC mission works around the world as well as particular prayer requests for these works. I encourage you to stay informed about what God is doing through our Church and to keep all these works in your prayers.
To find the Foreign Missions page, go to the All Saints’ Home page (www.allsaintsgreenville.com), locate the tool bar at the top right of the screen and click on the Resources tab. On the ensuing page, in the left hand column under “Devotions”, select the REC Foreign Missions button. Enjoy!!!
