Guest Priest this Sunday
Please welcome our guest priest for this Sunday and a couple more Sundays in October, the 22nd and 29th.
If you have worshipped before at All Saints', you might recognize his Chicago accent and his wife Kathy's beautiful singing from any pew in the church. The Reverend Canon Wayne Sanders is a Canon for the Bishop and Diocese for Interreligious affairs which means, he represents the Bishop whoever that may be, whenever the Bishop cannot be someplace to represent the Episcopal Church. At present he is Vice-President of the Interreligious Council of SD county.
He was born on the north side of Chicago and was ordained a Roman Catholic Priest on April 26, 1966 at St. Mary of the Lake Seminary, Mundelein, Illinois. His first Parish was on the South side of Chicago where he was an Assistant Priest, and then at St Gabriel Parish for five years where he served before entering the Navy as Chaplain for the next five years. During those five years, Fr. was reading and writing to Fr. Robert Wolterstorff, Rector of St. James by the Sea, who was his mentor in learning more about the Episcopal Church and how he might possibly become an Episcopal priest when he was released from active duty. That day happened on December 24, 1976 when he was officially received as an Episcopal Priest in the St. Mary's Chapel of All Saints'.
Kathy and Fr. Wayne have two grown children and three grandchildren that he and Kathy would love to tell you more about and would also love to know more about each and everyone of you and your families. It is obvious that the Sanders family loves the All Saints' family and always will.
Good By to Fr. McQueen and his family
As many of you may know September 3rd was Father McQueen's last Sunday as our Rector.
We want to wish Father McQueen, Sarah and their wonderful two children, Everett and Mattie, God's speed in their moving to Texas and getting established in his new position.

ALL SAINTS’ ALTO LEAD THEATER COACH
Vanessa (alto section leader) is currently working as the Dialect Coach on Billy Elliot, a co-production between San Diego Musical Theatre and California Ballet.
Billy Elliot is a stage musical inspired by the movie of the same name. It tells the story of a little boy in County Durham, England, during one of the most turbulent times in recent British history. It's a wonderful story of a community that comes together in a time of adversity, stress and hardship - the Miners' Strike of 1984 - and in the middle of it all is a little boy who discovers his talent and love for ballet.
Please note there is strong language.
For information and tickets: http://www.sdmt.org/shows/billy-elliot/
The production runs from Sept 22 - Oct 8, 2017 at the Spreckels Theatre, downtown.

BLESSING BAG TIME
|
Thank you all for helping us successfully fill 100 new Blessing Bags. They are ready for you to take 2 or 3 in your car to hand out to those you meet in your daily travels. They have a bit of non-perishable food, water, and some hygiene products. This is a much healthier option for the recipients than giving out cash. Enjoy spreading the love and charity of Christ to our neighbors in need of the basics. Blessing Bags can be found by the front and back tables in the sanctuary
With gratitude . . . your Social Action Committee

All Saints, the movie, is a must see for all. It is the true story of a pastor in Tennessee, who with the help of 50 Burmese refugees saved his dying church by turning the grounds around the church into a working farm. The movie will lift your spirits and move you to know that God is active in the wide world and that He listens to our prayers.
?You do not have an All Saints without faith. You do not have an All Saints without Jesus Christ. Human willing would not have been enough to save All Saints.
Plan to see this inspiring movie this weekend. It is showing at 2 theaters in the San Diego area. Click here for Cinema theater locations.

Want to be an Acolyte?
We have a pressing need for additional Acolytes in order to continue our worship in the manner to which we have all grown accustom. This is particularly true for the 10:30 Mass. If you are seeking an opportunity to serve and think that you might be interested in serving at the Altar, come by the Acolyte room before or after the service to learn what we do.
