Our View of Ministry

The people of the Church are the ministers of the Church.  Every person who is baptized into the Body of Christ is an instrument of his work in the world.  God gives various gifts to individuals so that, when we all are contributing, everything necessary for him to accomplish his purposes is on hand.  At All Saints Anglican Church it is our hope to educate, nurture and equip the people of God for the work of God.  Come join us and discover the work God has uniquely gifted you to do.

Our Music Director and pianist, Shannon Bryan, brings a wealth of instructional talent and experience to All Saints.

Coffee Hour

Like all of our Ministries, Sunday’s Coffee Hour is important as we fellowship together. Parishioners and visitors enjoy the delicious food/beverages being provided by volunteers. Looking ahead and anticipating Church membership growth, we want to ensure continued fellowship & that our new members & visitors continue to feel welcome. We appreciate all of you who have been very dedicated in providing refreshments. We strive to avoid burdening the same people; thus, we are encouraging each ASAC family to prayerfully consider participating at least one Sunday. See signup sheet, or call Becky Murphy. Volunteers bring a half gallon of juice, a pint of half and half, a variety of food and help with clean-up.

The Order of the Daughters of the Holy Cross was instituted on September 12, 2009 at Holy Cross Anglican Church in Loganville, GA. Daughters of the Holy Cross is designed to provide a plan for Anglican Daughters to live out their fourfold Vow of Prayer, Study, Service, and Evangelism in a nurturing and empowering community. This practice will allow Daughters to serve our Lord Jesus Christ as He unites and builds up His Body, the Church.

Our chapter, The Faith in Christ Chapter, will meet the first Sunday after church each month (noon til 1:30 pm)and continue to meet as a prayer group the third Saturday each month from 10:30 til noon. We usually meet at someone's home. The officers are: President: Linda DaSilva; Vice President: Kathy Aspden; Secretary: Sheri Schafer; and Treasurer: Libby Deverill.

Flower Guild

The Flower Guild provides the church with beautiful flower arrangements throughout the year. The Flower Guild members at All Saints follow the pattern set up for the church year by the readings for each Sunday and by the liturgical season. Each week the readings have a theme -- a message that ties them together. The clergy use this theme as a starting point for the sermon; the musicians use it for making selections; and the flowers often reflect that theme also. Sometimes the theme does not translate in a visual way, so the flowers will highlight the dedication or the color for that liturgical season. Sometimes the arrangements may just represent a joy to the glory of God. The Flower Guild is open to all who would like to learn about flowers.


Please contact Becky West or office@ptcanglican.org
