All Saints' Church
Is Searching for a new Rector
Do you feel a calling to All Saints'?
Are you looking for a Parish and want to know more about All Saints'
Attached is our Parish Profile.
Join THE SWEATSHIRT & SWEATPANTS Drive
We now invite you to join us in All Saints' Sweatshirt and Sweatpants Drive to benefit people in need in our community. Our goal is to have this ministry become a year-round effort, with parishioners donating as they are able. We will continue to partner with Scripps Mercy Hospital on 5th Ave. to provide clothing items for impoverished and homeless individuals who are seen in the ER. Fall and winter will be here soon enough, and the clothing needs at Scripps Mercy turn to cold-weather items. Many times, the clothes that folks were wearing when they arrived at the ER are not suitable to be worn at discharge.
Not sure where to purchase your sweats? Walmart, Target, Costco and Amazon have reasonably priced clothing in stock. Monetary donations are always welcome. (there are envelopes on the back table).
Our Donation Drive runs through November 2018. The SAC will schedule a time to drop-off our items in early December.
In Service,
All Saints’ Social Action Committee

Garden Project Update - By Sue Johnston
Our Saturday work party managed to pull more weeds, move 10 yards of compost from the Preschool parking lot to the garden and rototill it into the existing space. The 8 o’clockers were taken on a tour after Mass and were impressed by the changes taking place. I hope that you have had a chance to pay it a visit as well. I want to especially thank Homero for all of his diligent work and getting the site prepared for us to begin at 0800 and then joining us in the wheelbarrow brigade. Thanks also go to Bill Johnston, Cree Craig, Robin Cote-Sprong and Elizabeth Rietow for braving the heat and working to make our project a reality! Our next phase will be installing a solar irrigation system. This should take place in the next few weeks. — Sue Johnston

SOLEMN EVENSONG & BENEDICTION
During Willan's tenure as Precentor of St Mary Magdalene's (Toronto) the parish routinely offered the Office of Evensong and Benediction. For Evensong, Willan composed a series of Evening Canticles (Fauxbourdons), and set to various chant modes. In keeping with the musical tradition of St Mary Magdalene's, the Willan West Ritual Choir will be singing the canticle plainsong antiphons and verses, with the Gallery Choir taking the fauxbourdon verses. As with the mass, Willan capitalized on the spatial effect of separating the plainsong from the fauxbourdon setting.
REPERTOIRE:
Evensong:
Motet: Preserve us, O Lord, 1928
Canticles: Magnificat & Nunc Dimittis (Tones VIII & III with Fauxbourdons)
Motet: Very bread good shepherd tend us, 1924
Benediction:
O saving victim,1935

Choral Mass • SS. Simon and Jude
Willan West marks the Feast of SS. Simon and Jude by offering Missa Brevis no. 7 'O Westron Wynde' (1936) along with the motet Behold, the tabernacle of God (1933), dedicated to American composer Leo Sowerby, and the Eucharistic motet O how sweet, O Lord (1924). Willan's Missa Brevis no. 7 is based on the old English tune O Westron Wynde used by many composers as a cantus firmus through the centuries, including John Taverner, Christopher Tye, and John Sheppard.

All Saints' to Host
Willan West 2018
WillanWest 2018 is a Southern California celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the death of English-Canadian composer Healey Willan who served as organist and choirmaster at the Anglo-Catholic parish of St. Mary Magdalene in Toronto from 1921-1966. All Saints’ was chosen to host this celebration as it is the only Episcopal parish in San Diego that has the potential to duplicate the environment of St. Mary Magdalene due to its traditional architecture and liturgy.
WillanWest choir under the direction of Ruben Valenzuela will hold 14 Saturday events at All Saints’ – Mass, Evensong and Benediction at 7:00pm from January 2018 through November 2018. For additional information about Healey Willan and the Healey Willan project visit willanwest.org.

Six Bach Suites for Solo Cello
Update
Here are the latest updates from Sophie Webber, cellist, who has performed at All Saints' in concert and played her cello during a Sunday Mass
She was thrilled to recently learn that ESCAPE: BACH'S SIX SUITES FOR SOLO CELLO was given a lovely and very flattering review in Gramophone magazine (June 2018 issue)! Here's an online version here: https://www.gramophone.co.uk/review/js-bach-solo-cello-suites-webber-skoraczewski
Another very nice write up came from Jon Jacob in a review on his classical music blog, Thoroughly Good https://www.thoroughlygood.me/2018/03/30/review-sophie-webber-plays-bach-cello-suites-on-escape/ More press reviews can be found on my EPK page under PRESS (https://www.sophiewebber.com/epk-1)
ESCAPE: BACH'S SIX SUITES FOR SOLO CELLO is also being aired on radio stations across the USA (including Southern California's Classical KUSC 91.5FM, Seattle's King FM 98.1, Iowa Public Radio, Tampa Bay (Florida)'s WUSF Public Media, Rochester (New York)'s WXXI Classical 91.5, North Carolina's WCPE The Classical Station 89.7 FM, Portland's All Classical 89.9 KQAC FM)
Other projects Sophie is currently working on include a recording of Bach Suite No.1 in G Major BWV1007 with chamber choir (singing an arrangement I wrote --minimal, highlighting harmonies and the interplay of consonance and dissonance). Martin Green, the Choral Director at St. Paul's Cathedral in San Diego (where I recorded Escape) has generously agreed to pioneer this project with me, and we will be meeting with the singers (handpicked from Martin's wonderful choirs at St. Paul's) in the next couple of weeks for an initial recording session of the Prelude from Suite No.1.
She is also working with a video artist to create another music video, this one featuring the Allemande from Suite No.6.
Sophie appreciates your interest and ongoing support

ALL SAINTS' PRAYER CHAIN
We, at All Saints’, have a long time tradition in our prayer chain. We feel that as we pray together and pass our thoughts and prayers to God that we deepen our relationship, not only to God, but ourselves as his servants.
Please consider joining the prayer chain ministry. Through prayer we can possibly make a difference in the lives of our Parish family and friends. Contact Edith Thrumston.
Prayer: The world's greatest wireless connection.

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.
