Faith & Formation: Frederick Douglass’ “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July?” Speech
with Mark Chase and the Racial Justice Ministry
9:00 a.m. in the Guild Room.
In this season of our nation we find ourselves more than ever needing to glean from the words of Frederick Douglass’s now famous and prescient speech. Mark Chase will lead us through an exploration of this powerful testament to both the noble ideals of our nation and its failures to live up to them as we continue the struggle to make liberty and justice for all not just a pledge but a reality.

Summer Choir Begins!
9:00 a.m. in the Church on the Chancel. All tuneful voices are welcome to participate. You’ve enjoyed Coventry and Canterbury Choirs leading our Sunday services throughout the year. Well, now, it’s your turn to stop singing only in the shower and at the top of your lungs in your car on the way to church! Yep! All you have to do is simply show up at 9:00 a.m. in the Church on the Chancel. You’ll rehearse, be vested and lead the 10:00 a.m. service. Join us any or all Sundays July 5 through August 30. It’s your turn to Make a Joyful Noise! Information = Grace Chung, Associate Organist-Choirmaster at gchung@allsaints-pas.org.
