Dear Friends,
This past Sunday, we celebrated Trinity Sunday—the Church's great feast of the mystery of God: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. While the doctrine of the Trinity stretches beyond our ability to fully comprehend it, the good news is that we are invited to live within that divine life. We are baptized into the name of the Trinity, gathered by the Holy Spirit, nourished by Jesus Christ, and drawn ever more deeply into the love of the Father. The long green season after Pentecost now begins, and with it comes the steady work of Christian discipleship in the ordinary rhythms of parish life.
Those rhythms shift slightly as summer approaches. Beginning Sunday, June 14, and continuing through Sunday, September 6, we will move to our summer worship schedule of one Sung Eucharist at 9:30 a.m. Summer offers us a wonderful opportunity to gather as one congregation and I look forward to worshiping together throughout these months. Summer is a season when many of us travel, spend time with family, enjoy weekends at the lake, or simply settle into a different rhythm of life. These opportunities for rest and recreation are good gifts from God. At the same time, I hope we will remember that gathering for worship remains at the heart of our Christian life. If you are in town, I hope to see you at All Saints; if your travels take you elsewhere, I encourage you to find a local church and join fellow Christians in worship.
This week also marks the beginning of a new opportunity for midweek prayer. Starting Wednesday, June 3, at 6:00 p.m., we will gather in Grace Chapel for a simple service of Holy Communion with Anointing. In a world that rarely slows down, it can be a gift to pause in the middle of the week—to pray, receive the Blessed Sacrament, and bring our needs, concerns, and thanksgivings before God. Whether you come seeking healing, peace, strength, or simply a moment of stillness, you are warmly invited.
And before we turn fully toward summer, I hope you will join us for one of the great joys of parish life: our Parish Picnic this Sunday, immediately following the 10:30 a.m. Sung Eucharist. The picnic is a chance to enjoy good food, good conversation, and the fellowship that helps make All Saints more than a collection of individuals who attend the same church. It is one of the ways we continue becoming the Body of Christ together.
If you are able, please bring a dish to pass so that we can share in the abundance of God's gifts and enjoy a true parish feast together. Whether you bring a favorite family recipe, a simple side dish, or a dessert, your contribution will help make the afternoon a joyful celebration. And if you're unable to bring anything, please come anyway—your presence is what matters most.
I look forward to seeing you this Sunday—in worship, at the picnic, and in the weeks ahead as we continue our life together in Christ.
Yours in the Lord Jesus,
Cam+
