Christian Formation will resume in April.
A new book study will start in July to read and discuss Adam Nicolson’s book “God’s Secretaries: The Making of the King James Book of the Bible”.
In “God's Secretaries”, Adam Nicolson gives a fascinating and dramatic account of the era of the King James Bible and its translation, immersing us in an age whose greatest monument is not a painting or a building but a book.” (A review from Amazon Books.)
You can purchase the book on Amazon or Abe Books. The cost is less than $8 for a used paper back in good condition.
A podcast is available on YouTube with Dennis Praeger interviewing the author Adam Nicolson. Click here.
Join us in July on Sunday, July 9 and July 23 to discuss the amazing story of the making of the King James bible by a committee!

San Diego Music Coterie
CONCERT
Sunday, October 2 at 3PM
All Saints’ Parish Hall
The Greater San Diego Music Coterie presents its opening concert for the 12th Season at All Saints Episcopal Church with selections from Bizet’s L’Arlésienne and Dvorák’s Symphony No. 8 in G major, Op. 88, featuring the Greater San Diego Chamber Orchestra and soprano Emily Ortlieb, a member of All Saints’ Choir.
S Emily began her musical training as a pianist at the age of 5 in her home of Algonquin, Illinois. Under the supervision of her beloved late teacher, Mr. Robert Hart, Emily began working in local churches at age 12 as a pianist, organist, and eventually soprano soloist. She received her Bachelor's degree in Voice Performance from the University of Illinois School of Music, and spent nearly 3 years in Austria with the Fulbright Program. As an operatic soprano, Emily has made a name for herself as a soloist at the world premiere of Spanish composer Pablo Croissier's choral works, and has sung the roles of Sophie (Der Rosenkavalier), Ophelie (Hamlet), and Euridyce (Orpheus in der Unterwelt).
Additionally, Ms. Ortlieb holds a law degree from the University of Minnesota and currently works as a legal associate for the UN Refugee Agency. She is a passionate advocate for refugees, stateless persons, and neighbors experiencing homelessness.
Emily is overjoyed to share her musical talents with the San Diego Coterie and the community of San Diego. She firmly believes in the power of music as a uniter of human beings and communities the world over.
All performers have been fully vaccinated, including the booster.
Admission is free with free-will donation at the door. Masks are recommended, but not required

Social Action Committee News
We are now in Eastertide ... a time of joy, renewal, flowers, and warmer weather ... but not so much so for some of our neighbors! The luxury of heating, hot meals, fresh water, clean clothes, and dry shelter are staples for most of us reading this. But all around us are folks who have none of these things readily available to them.
Let us show them our love and charity with continued support of the Scripps/Mercy ER and the local food bank — Serra-Mesa Food Bank.
Your continued generosity is greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!!
All Saints' Social Action Committee!

“Even brief glimpses of these amazing creatures have filled me with fear, wonder, and gratitude, for like all of God’s creation, in its myriad ways, a bear’s simple existence speaks of something powerful and profound far beyond our little lives. It speaks of the Creator.”

Prayer is used in a multitude of ways to seek comfort, make a request, ask for guidance, heal and restore, express sorrow, celebrate joy or give thanks. 'The Prayers of the People' that is provided weekly in the back our bulletin is an updated list of everything and everyone on our prayer list and is an excellent resource to be used in our daily prayers. However, between these bulletins, situations arise that people need immediate prayers started. More information will be provided in future enews.
If you are interested in being included in the prayer chain or if you have additional questions or comments, please contact Pamela Gray throught the Parish.

Sunday Morning Childcare
We are excited to announce that our nursery is now being staffed through Panda's Domestic Referral Agency, which provides childcare for many churches in San Diego. All sitters are childcare professionals that have undergone a national background check and are Infant and Child CPR Certified.
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.
