Programs & Activities

We offer a variety of engaging programs and activities for children and youth to grow in faith, fellowship, and service. From Sunday school and youth group gatherings to special events and outreach opportunities, we provide a welcoming space where young people can explore their faith, build friendships, and make a difference in the community.

WEDNESDAY PROGRAMS for BODY & SOUL | 5:30 -7:30pm

Birth–Preschool
The nursery will be staffed beginning at 5:30 PM, offering parents the opportunity to participate in midweek activities. Children will have a short age-appropriate lesson, faith formation activity, and playtime.

Kindergarten–5th Grade
Meets in the Art/Craft Room for a short faith formation lesson from the St. George’s Christian Education Curriculum. They will

create a coordinating craft activity and then return to eat with their families

Middle School
Meets in the Drama Room for The Chosen Small Group. Students will watch an episode of The Chosen and then engage in a deep discussion over dinner, which they will share together in the room. We’ll be using a Chosen study guide developed specifically for middle schoolers.

High School
At this time, Young Life will serve as our primary weekly high school program. To supplement that, we’ll also host a monthly art and music night to provide additional fellowship opportunities for All Saints youth.
SUNDAY MORNING PROGRAMS | 9:30AM - 12:00PM

Birth–Preschool
The nursery will be staffed each Sunday beginning at 9:00 AM to give parents an opportunity to attend Choir Practice or Dr. Jackson’s Sunday School class. Children will enjoy a short, age-appropriate lesson, a faith formation activity, and plenty of playtime.

Kindergarten–4th Grade
Children are invited to begin worship in the sanctuary with their families. They will be dismissed during the first canticle (you’ll see this indicated in your bulletin). This follows the Shepherd’s Paradigm, a model previously used with great success at All Saints.

After dismissal, the children will be escorted to St. David’s Chapel for a short children’s service and an age-appropriate reading that corresponds with Father Will’s scripture reading—presented in a way that’s easy for kids to understand.

Morning Prayer Sundays: Children will reunite with their families afterward for cookies and lemonade on the bricks.

Communion Sundays: Children will return to the sanctuary to participate in Holy Communion with their families.

Middle & High School
Students are invited to attend Scripture Study at 9:30 AM in the Parish Hall.
Acolyte - Sunday Morning

Acolytes play a vital role in leading our worship services, assisting the clergy in carrying out the liturgy with reverence and grace. They carry processional crosses, torches, and banners, light candles, and help prepare the altar for Holy Communion. Serving as an acolyte is a meaningful way to deepen one’s faith, learn more about Episcopal traditions, and actively contribute to the rhythm and beauty of our worship. This opportunity is open to youth and adults who feel called to serve in this capacity.

Please contact the Children & Youth Director, for more information.

I want to serve in the All Saints’ Youth or Children’s Ministry!

Leaders are the heartbeat of our Ministry! Adults of all ages and backgrounds give their time and energy to connect teenagers to the life-changing love of Jesus Christ. Whether you have served before or are considering joining the team for the first time, there is a place for you.
If you’re ready to get started, please get in touch with the church office or speak to our Children & Youth Ministry Director to get connected with some next steps. If you have any questions, please feel free to call our office at (229) 228-9242
