Join us on Saturday (31 October 2015) from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM for the Halloween CAR-nival hosted by Church for the Highlands / Highland Center Ministries (520 Olive Street, Shreveport LA).

Setup starts at 10:00 AM and everyone should be in place by 11:30 AM.

Decorate a trunk or a table, give out candy and provide a game for kids to play who come trick-or-treating. This event will happen rain or shine. If it rains, we’ll be inside at tables in the gym.

Even if you can’t set up a table or trunk, bring the kids out for some early trick-or-treat fun!

Stewardship Kickoff Breakfast — Sunday, 25 October 2015

Please joins for our Stewardship Kickoff Breakfast this Sunday (25 October 2015) at 10:00 AM in the Social Hall at the church.

We’re getting closer to the season of giving as we kick off our 2016 Stewardship Campaign.

It’s time to think about what All Souls means to you and what you are able to give back in terms of time, talent, and treasure.

Members have found that when they give in all three ways — to the extent that they are able — they gain a greater sense of ownership in the church.

As Barbara reminds us each Sunday, this church is sustained in every way by its members — and that includes everything from singing in the choir to working on the Building and Grounds to paying the light bill.

What is your dream for our church?
More outreach?
More paid professional musicians to enhance our services?
All our building “quirks” magically fixed?
________________ (Your dream here)?

Join us as we dream together and share a delicious breakfast.

If you have a particularly wonderful breakfast item you’d like to bring, or if you’d like to help in some other way, please contact Amanda Lawrence via email or via phone (318-402-3314).

9 May 2015 Building and Grounds Work Day

Please join us on Saturday (9 May 2015) from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM for our monthly building and grounds work day.

Rain or shine, inside or out — this work day will go on as scheduled.

If the weather cooperates, we’ll continue work on the nature trail and other outside tasks.

But we also have things to do inside.

Come one, come all, young and old, great and small, and we will put you to work!

Stay the whole time or give as much time as you have to spare (even if it’s just to drop off snacks for the crew).

Most of the work to maintain our building and grounds is done by volunteers. It’s a great way to build community and get to know your All Souls community better.

Hope to see you there!
