Building and Grounds Workday — 14 November 2015
Please join us on Saturday (14 November 2015) from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM for our monthly building and grounds work day.
Weather permitting, we will continue on the nature trail this Saturday along with the usual tasks — indoors and out.
Almost all of the work of our congregation is done by volunteers and working side by side with your All Souls friends can be a good way to get to know them better and to build community within the congregation.
Stay the whole time or just an hour or so. If you can’t stay, consider dropping by some snacks for the crew.
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).

Monthly Building and Grounds Work Day Postponed
We are moving our regular Building and Grounds Day to Saturday (17 October 2015) to accommodate today’s wedding.

Today’s work will be outside only (to be respectful of the wedding party preparations).

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!
