Parish Hall Boxes- Update
We have all the Boxes that we need for packing up items in the Parish Hall! Therefore, there is no further need to collect more. Thank you all for the excellent job gathering them!
Parish Hall Floor- Update
We anticipate the work to begin on the floor in around 2 weeks Currently, we are waiting for the flooring materials to come. Once the material is in, the work will begin the following Monday. It will take 3-5 days to complete. Therefore, by starting on a Monday, the installation will not disrupt our Sunday activities.
The flooring company will move any furniture as they need. However, we do need to have the tables and moveable cabinets as well as anything on the ground in the closets and bathrooms (thus the need for the boxes).
Therefore, we will have a packing day on the Sunday before the work begins (we will announce the date as soon as we know it). We will then have an unpacking day on the Saturday after the work concludes. Be sure to bring a change of clothes with you to church on the packing day. Also, the church will provide lunch. Finally, I am not anticipating either of these work days to be long or arduous. Basically, we are boxing and then unboxing paper goods.
In the meantime:
- Gather as many printer paper sized boxes as you can
- We will schedule a Sunday packing day (TBA)
- We will also schedule Saturday unpacking day (TBA)
Third Quarter Mission- The Piedmont Women’s Center
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 2025 is the Piedmont Woman’s Center.
The goal of the Piedmont Woman’s Center is to assist and encourage women who are pregnant not to seek an abortion but to have their baby. Their services include: providing free laboratory quality pregnancy testing, free pregnancy consultations, and free Limited OB ultrasounds at three locations in the Upstate region. You can learn more here: LINK
You can support this important work through (a) monetary donations (remember to place “2nd Quarter Mission” or Piedmont Women’s Center” on the FOR line of your check); or (b) you can also donate items that the center needs to help these young mothers. There is a list of needed items on the mission table in the parish hall.
Trinity Sunday- What and Why
Trinity Sunday is the Sunday set apart for us to celebrate and renew our focus that the God we worship is one God and three persons.
However, please note: Trinity is not a one and done celebration. We do not just give a nod and wink to the Trinity once a year. Instead, our celebration is an octave (8 days). That is, we celebrate it for two Sundays. In other words, the wisdom of our fathers bids us to stop, ponder, and reflect upon the centrality of the Trinity. But that is not all. Like almost every other major celebration of the Church calendar, Trinity is followed by an entire season where we look at the significance and relevance of the object of or celebration from many different angles and contexts.
What I want you to notice is the important role that Trinity Sunday plays in the Liturgical Calendar. Notice then where we are liturgically:
Liturgically speaking Trinity Sunday is a Transition Sunday. That is, Trinity Sunday provides the essential theological link in the Liturgical calendar between all that has come before and everything that follows after. How?
First, Trinity Sunday is the culmination of all that we have celebrated thus far. That is, it looks back on the whole of salvation and reminds us that the salvation we have celebrated from Advent to Pentecost is the work of the entire Trinity. Importance: the message of Scripture is that God saves. It is not that God starts salvation and then leaves you to work out the rest. Rather, the message of Scripture is that what God has begun in you He will not fail to complete. In other words, the whole of your life and salvation rests in the hands of the Triune God.
At the same time, Trinity Sunday looks forward to the Trinity season and prepares us to see the unfolding of the Salvation God has given us and our roll as witnesses to the one true living God and the new life He has accomplished for us.
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
This week’s web feature is The Anglican Catechism (To Be A Christian). This is a wonderful devotional resource and a much-needed addition to the Anglican Church’s teaching ministry. Traditionally Catechisms were used to instruct covenant children and new converts to the faith in the central teachings of Scripture. As such, these catechisms provide a clear summery of the faith as well as Scriptural references for each point. In turn, they remain an invaluable devotional resource for God’s people throughout their lives and at every stage of their Christian walk. The Anglican Catechism is just this sort of resource. I encourage you to take a look at it and to make use of it in your own family and personal devotional life.
To find the Anglican Catechism, go to the All Saints’ Home page (www.allsaintsgreenville.com), locate the tool bar at the top right of the screen, select the Resources tab. On the ensuing page scroll down the middle column “Faith” and select the Anglican Catechism button. Enjoy!!!
Also, a copy of the Anglican Catechism can be purchased through Anglican House Publishing here: LINK
