Public Columbarium Project Update

We Need Your Help Finding Old Photos

Back in 1928 the Mission of Foxtrap was raised to the status of a Parish.  In that same year, Rev H.V. Whitehouse emphasized the need for us to build a new Church.  This project was lead by a Mr William Henry Batten and a Mr Stevens, both from Bareneed, with most of the work completed by free labour.

Our corner stone was laid on June 07, 1931, with the first service being held on November 27, 1932.

If you have any photos of this construction, or early days, we ask if you could email them to communications@allsaintsparish.ca of call our Office at 709-834-4501, and we can arrange scanning and cataloguing them.

Now is a good time to consider signing up to our eGiving program, which is an excellent way to continue your financial support of your Parish.  It is a very quick and easy process.  The quickest and most convenient way is to complete this web-based form.  As soon as you click the SEND button, your work is done, without even leaving your home!  You may also download a printable authorization form here, and when you have completed the form, you can email it to donations@allsaintsparish.ca  or you can place it in our mail drop-slot, which is located at the top of the stairs, just to the left of the main entrance of our Parish Hall.  If you have any questions, please call our Office at 834-4501.

Alongsiders' Monthly Prayer Schedule

Our Alongsider's Team would like to make their current monthly prayer services available to you simply by clicking here.  To visit all past issues click here.

Alongsiders are members of our Parish who, due to circumstances of sickness, mobility, age, etc., can not physically attend a worship service at our Church.  However, they still want to be part of the worship, and where possible, to help from home.  The Alongsiders program accomplishes this.  Each month, a service for each Sunday is prayerfully put together, similar to the in-Church service, and is then delivered to each Parishioner as part of a home visit.  A vital part of our ministry is ‘praying alongside’ our brothers and sisters in Christ.  Currently we have 14 members in the Parish of All Saints.

Join One of Our Many Ministry Teams

All Saints has witnessed many changes in our Church over the past three years, and in our efforts to move forward within our “new normal”, we are hoping to rebuild our numerous groups and ministries.  Each Team provides an opportunity for fun and fellowship.  We look forward to seeing you as a member of one of these wonderful Ministerial Teams:  Altar Guild, Communications, Eucharist Assistant, Funeral Reception, Lectern Reader, Liturgical Planner, Offertory Counter, Server (must be confirmed), Sides Person, Greeter, and many more.  Simply call our Office at 834-4501 or email us at office@allsaintsparish.ca.  You may also visit our website at allsaintsparish.ca to complete our online form, or download the form for printing and completion, which you can then drop in a collection plate or at the Parish Office.

Join Our Servers Team

We are inviting anyone who is confirmed, and who is interested in becoming a server, including all former servers, to join our revived Server Team.  For further information, please contact Gerry Fagan 834-5303 or Joanne Simfukwe 682-8103.

All Saints Communications Team

We just wanted to remind you that we have a “Communications Team” in place at All Saints.  We all need to be mindful that the lines of communication must be kept open so that all information gets broadcasted by whatever tools we have available to us in our Parish.  If you feel something needs to be addressed by our Communications Team, please feel free to send us an email, and we will attempt to address it in a timely manner, or perhaps get it out there through The Candle, our FaceBook page, our Webpage, or our Roadside Bulletin Board.   Our e-mail address is communications@allsaintsparish.ca

Birthday Sunday - 1^st Sunday Every Month

Out traditional “Birthday Sunday”, which is held on the first Sunday of every month, has returned.   

This is a time when we as a Parish Family acknowledge all those who are celebrating a birthday in the new month.  So if you know of someone celebrating a birthday, let us know, and we will post it on our live stream on that Birthday Sunday.

Holy Baptism – 2^nd Sunday of Every Month

We are delighted to announce that Holy Baptism is now a part of our regular Sunday morning service on the second Sunday off every month.

Join Our Live Streaming Team

There are a growing number of Parishioners, as well as non-Parishioners who depend on our live streaming in order to participate in regular Sunday worship.  We have grown to the stage that we now need to expand beyond our current Team members.  If you are able to help us with this very rewarding ministry, we would love to have you on our Team.  It is not as complicated as you might think, so there is no need to feel intimidated just because you have never been involved in broadcasting before.  Neither were we!!!!  We will sit with you while you get up to speed, and feel comfortable on your own.  If you are able to help in any way, we would very much love to hear from you.  Just drop us a note at communications@allsaintsparish.ca

The Candle - Our Weekly Newsletter

For many years now, our Parish has published our weekly information bulletin, The Candle, that was handed out at each Sunday service.  It was our way to keep our Parishioners informed about what was happening in our Parish, and a medium to seek support when we needed it. 

The Candle, like most other things these days, is now shared digitally, and can be found not only on our website, but we also attempt to email it to those for whom we have contact information for.  To get added to that distribution list, simply click here to send us your details.

We would also like to ask you that if you have any items you would like to share, such as birthday greetings (oh how we miss the fun spirit of our Birthday Sundays) or anniversaries, or even an article that you may have seen or read that you feel others might enjoy, please feel free to pass them along to communications@allsaintsparish.ca.   Together we can start "feeling together" once more - if not in body, then in spirit.

Also, as you will note when you read The Candle, you have the opportunity to bring special attention to a loved one by actually sponsoring The Candle for a given week, or even place a full page memorial, complete with a picture.
