Welcome Home to the Place You Belong
On Homecoming Sunday we will gather to celebrate the start of a new program year, the gift of community, and the joy of being together again. Join us for a Sunday of worship, food, and fellowship as All Saints Church continues the journey of Becoming a Beloved Community of Belonging.
In addition to our festivities on the lawn, we will have a special moment during our liturgy when we gather to tell the truth as we dedicate a plaque marking our historic participation in the sin of segregation at a time when not all were welcomed home at All Saints Church. We believe that truth-telling is a sacred act, and that the work of building a truly beloved community requires a full and honest remembrance of the past as we celebrate incremental victories on the journey together into God’s future.
So, join us as we continue that journey together: discovering together that the deepest of joys come by way of the fullest of remembrances. Lunch, music and fellowship on the lawn after the 10:00 service. All are welcome!
