On Sunday, February 27 we celebrate the Eighth Sunday After the Epiphany — and the last Sunday before Lent — with in-person and online worship at 7:30, 9:00 and 11:30 a.m. Mike Kinman will preach at all three services. At 9:00 & 11:30 a.m., Coventry Choir Quartet offers music; Trouvères offer Shalom by Forrest. Parish Celebrations will offer a Mardi Gras Celebration and Food Collection on the lawn from 8:30 am-1:00 pm.
The Forum at 10:15 a.m.: An Update on Roe v. Wade
Sunday’s Forum offers An Update on Roe v. Wade: Join us at 10:15 a.m. for this very important and timely Forum as we welcome Tricia Gray from Access Reproductive Justice and Juliana Serrano from Planned Parenthood to explore the legal status of Roe v. Wade and the potential impact on those seeking abortion care if it is overturned. In alignment with our commitment since 1989 as a prayerfully pro-choice church, we will learn what Planned Parenthood of Pasadena and San Gabriel Valley and Access Reproductive Justice are doing to prepare for this and practical ways that we can prepare to help the huge influx of people who will be coming into the state seeking abortion care.
Following the 11:30 service, join us for an Online Coffee Hour — hosted by this week by Alfredo Feregrino and Greeter Jenn McGaw.
At 5:00 p.m. on the Chancel, we observe the end of Black History Month with Lamentations of Black Souls — a powerful liturgy of story and song. The collective stories of human bondage, heartbreak, and despair are reflected in every note of the songs and letters preserved through generations. It is in these anguished cries to heaven, that we gain a visceral insight into the souls of a strong, proud race; bowed, yet unbroken. Weicheng Zhao and Michal Dawson Connor will lead a musical meditation of Slave Songs and Letters with Grace Chung, Xin Xin Martin, and Elizabeth Tatum. Join us as we reach back into time and experience the life-stories and music of truly remarkable people. This program will also be streamed live here.
Streaming is offered on our website’s live stream page, our Facebook page and our YouTube channel.
The 7:30 a.m. service will be offered on Zoom only. Visit our live streaming page to download service leaflets and participate in our action of the week.

As we return to in-person worship, our guiding principle will remain to follow common sense risk reduction guidance for as long as we remain in a declared public health pandemic, so to keep our community safe and well, our in-person worship guidelines include:
- Medical-grade Masks are required at all times — both indoors and outdoors — on the All Saints campus.
- Both outdoor and indoor seating is available for services. Communion will be served in both locations.
- Our expectation is that those entering the church will be vaccinated (if vaccination is available to them). We require that masks be worn by all to protect the most vulnerable.
- Those seated indoors are asked to maintain social distance between individuals/households.
- If we reach seating capacity in the church, ushers will guide you to alternative seating areas.
- We ask you not enter if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms: fever over 100.4°F or chills, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of taste or smell, sore throat, congestion or runny nose, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea, or if you have had contact in the last 14 days with someone diagnosed with or suspected to have COVID-19.
