Rector's Note: The Great 50 Days of Easter | All Saints Episcopal Church

Dear Saints,

I am so thankful for getting to celebrate Easter with you this last Sunday. Hearing the birds sing along in our outdoor service and seeing our kids run across the church lawn were pure joy. And thankfully that joy isn’t limited to Easter Sunday. We are now in the Great 50 Days of Easter, or Eastertide. Just as Lent was a time for intentionally reflecting and repenting, Eastertide is a time to celebrate intentionally God’s goodness in our lives. It is a time to seek occasions of experiencing and creating joy.

This Sunday we will continue our joyful celebration of Easter with online worship and an in-person service (at 10:15am). You can sign up to attend the 10:15am service here or by calling the Church Office at 503-777-3829 and leaving a message. Please assume you are RSVP'd unless you hear otherwise. All of our call-in and online services, including the 10:15, will continue as normal. Zoom Coffee Hour and Godly Play will continue this Sunday as well.

Easter is here! Let us go forth into the world with joy!!

Andria+

Please Note: Services are reduced capacity. Physical distancing and mask wearing will be observed. There is no congregational singing at this time.
