On Sunday, February 28 will celebrate the Second Sunday in Lent from the beautiful interior of All Saints via livestream. Ministers of the liturgy will be observing the social distance and safety protocols dictated by health care professionals and in compliance with our diocesan guidelines. And while we all long for the time when we can safely return for in person congregational worship, being able to center our online service in our familiar and beloved sanctuary is one step toward that eventual goal.
This link https://allsaints-pas.org/live-stream/ includes the Rector’s Forum, the 11:15 a.m. & 1 p.m. services.
10:00–11:00 a.m. Rector’s Forum with Professor John Williams
John Williams is passionate about the ministry of reconciliation. John teaches a course at Life Pacific called “Foundations of Reconciliation and Social Justice” and another course called “Business Law and Ethics” in hopes of influencing a new generation of business leaders and ministers to be reconcilers. “I pray that they are able to take some of the things they learn and apply them when something difficult arises on campus, or in a conflict, or when they make decisions or establish policies in the future.”
Chapel Time: 11:00-11:15 a.m.
Interactive Children’s Chapel led by Kelly Erin O’Phelan
All children and families are invited to participate. If you have a candle available, be ready to light it! For information on joining Children’s Chapel, contact Kelly Erin O’Phelan at kophelan@allsaints-pas.org.
Meditative Chapel
Chapel aims to be a liminal space between the hustle of life and household and a more tranquil, worshipful mindset. We’ll have a reading and a moment of meditation, you’ll just need yourself and a candle if you have one. Jason Luckett will lead today’s meditation inspired by Howard Thurman, with spirituals and freedom songs. Please join us here. [Meeting ID: 798 7708 5533, Passcode: NJd9F0]
