We offer a wide range of opportunities for you to participate in that support our many groups, services and programs. Please consider joining any of these on-going Ministries as a partner in all that we do here at all Saints’ Church.
Ministries
Altar Guild
The Altar Guild prepares the Altar for Saturday and Sunday services and for special services such as funerals, weddings and baptisms. Members arrange flowers, and maintain altar linens. We welcome anyone interested in this ministry. Choose your own schedule.
Service Ushers
Our Ushers meet and greet our visitors at each service. They assist with collections during the Offertory and are always available to help our parishioners and guests while they are in our Sanctuary. Please consider joining us as an Usher. It's a wonderful way to meet everyone at church while providing an important service to our parish and our worship.
Lectionary Readers
During our 10 AM Service each Sunday we include a parishioner with the opportunity to join on the Altar for the weekly readings. It is important that we continue to share our worship together with a variety of voices from within our parish. We are always looking for new members to participate. Please speak with Father Jay if you would like to be a reader during our Sunday services.
Eucharistic Ministers
Eucharistic Ministers serve on the altar with the Pastor and assist with readings, the prayers of the people, setting Christ's table and offering the chalices during Communion. Please prayerfully consider joining this important Ministry. All participants are fully trained and must be licensed by the Bishop in order to serve. Please speak with Father Jay to learn more about this very special role in our weekly worship.

Neighbors Helping Neighbors
When you see our outreach activities at All Saints’ what we hope becomes apparent is our attempt to share our good fortune locally, nationally and globally. You may also notice that our outreach includes both volunteer-supported programs as well as monetary donations.. We seek a healthy balance of both.
All Saints’ Church is enveloped by a geographical portion of Philadelphia which includes both poverty and affluence. The needs of the impoverished go without saying and there are more hands held out than we can touch.
Jean's Joy
Created by her daughters to honor the memory of beloved Jean Rosania. A long time All Saints' parishioner, Jean was known for her generous spirit & her love of family and friends. Together her family has built a remarkable organization that is founded in fellowship & faith and provides outreach support to many families in need (both within our parish and also many outlying communities) as well as cooking and providing food kits to Meals On Wheels for delivery. Each year they host a wonderful open-door Mother's Day Dinner event in our Parish Hall. They end the year with an amazing "Build-Your-Own-Gingerbread-House" fund-raising event that just might be the wildest & most fun annual holiday party ever. All Saints' Church is proud to sponsor this very special Ministry and support the Rosania & Massaro families and all the selfless work they do year-round. We look forward to adding even more Jean's Joy events to our calendar to further promote their special message of hope, love and community partnership. (Monetary donations to support Jean's Joy can be made through this web site's DONATE button. Please use the drop down menu and select "Jean's Joy" as the recipient of your donation).
Events Committee & Volunteers
All Saints' continues to expand its year-round calendar of special activities and programs for our parish and local community to enjoy together. The success of these on-going programs depends on advanced planning and scheduling, as well as a committed army of volunteers who work together to make everything a success. We are so grateful to the many folks who work with us at each event. We are always looking for additional people to come help and be a part of our exciting and fun events.
