Senior Warden's Corner
Tune in here for a monthly update from All Saints Episcopal Church Senior Warden. The Senior Warden's Corner is also published monthly in the Church newsletter, the Trumpet.

All Saints, since 1992, has been delivering food to the emigrants in Indiantown. Before the hurricanes many emigrants were employed by flower growers. These farms were destroyed and never recovered. Also many were employed by vegetable farmers but this work is very seasonable. Any morning at many locations men are waiting for odd jobs. Due to the present economical condition jobs are scarce.
Last week when I was delivering food to the food bank, I saw 30-35 women
and children waiting for the door to open. I was touched that 25 miles
away people are going hungry. These are not lazy men
and women. They will work at any job.
They need our help!! The holidays are coming. Show them that we care.

The Senior Warden's Corner for this month highlighted the new Web site, which you are reading right now. The senior warden reminds church members to check out the following areas of the Web site:

-
Read the biography of our Rector , The Reverend W. Frisby Hendricks III, as well as a biography of our Deacon, The Reverend Jane Hostetter.
-
Learn about the history of our church
-
Learn about the All Saints cemetery, its history and links to a cemetery database project.
And also, please feel free to provide feedback to the Webmaster.

All Saints’ Episcopal Church is going through many positive changes:
-
Our Thrift Shop has been remodeled. An extra room has been added. New inventory has arrived. Our friendly volunteers are ready for business.
-
Our carpenter volunteers have been busy on repairs to all the buildings, Have you noticed the new doors and siding?
-
All Saints’ now has a sexton. This is a big help to keep a clean and attractive facility.
Work on the Church pool is in progress, flowers and all. -
The Church Grounds and landscaping volunteers now have a new riding lawn mower thanks to a Saint of All Saints’. New lawn tools have also been acquired. This will make the landscaping much easier for our volunteers
-
With the hard work of our volunteer Administrator and Treasurer, new policies and procedures are now in place. This will insure All Saints’ a stable financial future.
All of this effort is made possible by our great volunteers!
All Saints’ Episcopal Church will be a self supporting Church. The Rev. W. Frisby Hendricks, III will be our Rector.
