All Saints Church, Bay Head, NJ

All Saints Church Welcomes You!

As your senior warden I want to say as loudly and clearly as I can how grateful I am to be a member of our All Saints faith community. If one wrote a novel about a parish by the sea that in eight years was nearly washed away by a hurricane, had two changes in priestly leadership, and had several towering parishioners pass on, only to encounter a pandemic which precluded in-person worship in a beloved sanctuary, the reader might say, good drama, but this is all a bit over the top, don’t you think? That, however, has been our reality these past eight years.

Yet these vicissitudes have only made our faith community stronger. So many of you are participating in efforts to keep us not only functioning but improving. A Zoom service every Sunday at 10:15 am, followed by our virtual coffee house, a book club, eGiving, utilizing the spacious rectory back yard, these are all innovations that have been us saying that we won’t let this pandemic put us down, even as we didn’t let Superstorm Sandy put us down. The Bible is full of examples of God’s flock overcoming vicissitudes with faith. I like to think we are among that flock.

Gerald Harvey, Senior Warden

All are Welcome!

Wind, Rain and Fire

August 2020

It is that time of the year, sadly. Mother Nature crashes summer and forces us to witness over 12,000 lightning strikes that ignite wildfires in California, a hurricane roaring in from the Gulf of Mexico, and the derecho windstorm that ripped the silos apart and mowed the corn flat in Iowa. And, we’re only in August! In the past, Outreach would be asking for a loose plate collection. But we’re not passing the plate these dates. We still want to live up to our name, Outreach. So we are asking you to give, if you can, either by sending a check to All Saints Church, with "disasters" in the memo line, or visiting the e-giving link in the website and select "Natural Disasters" for your donation. We understand we are asking for your help at a time when so many need help right at home, and we are grateful for anyone who can share. -- Phyllis Kata, Outreach Committee

Flowers and Light

June 2020

**To the glory of God** All Saints Church members have traditionally commemorated their family’s significant life events by sponsoring altar flowers and the sanctuary light. You can continue that tradition during these pandemic days. Even though we are not worshipping in the building, the sanctuary light is still burning to indicate that consecrated Eucharistic elements are present. You may still sponsor the light. And, while we are not purchasing flowers for the altar each week, you are invited to contribute to a virtual altar flower fund. The suggested donation for the sanctuary candle is $10.00, and $20.00 for virtual altar flowers. You can make your donation via eGiving or by sending a check to the Altar Guild at the church.

ASC Book Club

Tuesday, September 15, 2020, 7:30 PM

Join us for our next ASC Book Club Zoom meeting on Tuesday, September 15th, at 7:30 pm. We will be discussing *"Mill on th e Floss"* by George Eliot. We invite you to join the ASC Book Club, whether you read the book or not. Call Phyllis Kata, 732-892-5198 or email at ed-phyllis@comcast.net, and we’ll send you the Zoom meeting link. We welcome all.

eGiving

June 2020

We're pleased to announce that eGiving is now active on our website.

It is a very simple procedure similar to making other charitable donations online.
