 World Vision Adoption

Our adoption process is complete!  We have adopted a five year old girl from Ethiopia. Her name is Melesech.   I hope you have had time to check out the bulletin board in the church hallway.  It is dedicated to Melesech.  You can find out more about her, her country and World Vision.  Our children will write letters to Melesech as part of their Sunday school curriculum.  Please read our first communication from her.  Most important of all keep her and her family in your prayers.                 Joann McGuire

 NEW PROCEDURE For the Reporter 

We will be starting a new procedure for the dissemination of the Reporter. Each month for one Sunday the Reporter copies will be in the hallway to be picked up. This will save us postage.  After that, those left behind will be mailed. 


 

Nursery Care

 All Saints’ offers nursery care for infants and toddlers during Sunday Service so that parents can have quiet time with God. We ask that if you plan on using this service, you can be added to the rotation once a month as a caregiver in the nursery area.  Please see or call Karen Langin (203) 879- 4070.



The Food Bank

    As a continuing Outreach Program we collect non-perishable food items and paper products     for the Watertown-Oakville Food Bank weekly. There is a basket in the Narthex to receive your
donations.
 The list of clients for the Food Bank has increased this past year.  All donations are gratefully received.


Storm Alert

In the event of winter weather, please tune into WFSB-TV Channel 3 for First Alert Network to see if services will be held.  If you attend 8:00 service, call Fr. Andy at 203-982-0261 or use your best judgment; we won’t make a decision until later.  For any church meetings, activities etc... if unsure, please call before going out.
