Our Ministries
EDUCATION
A variety of educational opportunities are available at All Saints:
Adult Bible Study: Small-group Bible study offers a place to connect with other believers in fellowship and to grow in understanding of scripture. Bible study groups at All Saints help equip you on your lifelong journey in becoming the person God created you to be. Our Bible study currently gathers at 9:30 am in Luther Hall. Opportunities to lead new Bible study groups are also available.
Sunday School: The All Saints Sunday School program includes Pre-K (3-4 year olds) to 5th Grade during the school year. Children gather after the children’s sermon during the service.
Teach Sunday School: You don’t even need to have a child in Sunday School to teach! Here at All Saints, we want our children to feel loved and cared for by all of our members, and what better way to get to know these “little saints” than by teaching them all about God and His great love?
Confirmation: Our confirmation program is for 6th, 7th and 8th grade students. Confirmation classes are held on Wednesday evenings during the school year.

Youth Connections
Youth at All Saints participate in congregational events and activities that happen throughout the year. Youth are encouraged and welcomed to become worship volunteers. All Saints youth also participate in ELCA Youth Gatherings. Every three years, 30,000 high school youth and their adult leaders from across the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America gather for a week of faith formation. Through days spent in interactive learning, worship, Bible study, service and fellowship, young people grow in faith and are challenged and inspired to live their faith in their daily lives. All Saints also seeks chaperones - adults of any age that love kids and can serve as good Christian role models. Opportunities for chaperones include evening, day, weekend, or week-long events.
