All Saints' Singles is a social group for singles in their 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, divorced, never married, single parents, or widowed.  All Saints’ is now a member parish of Multi-Parish Singles, an inter-denominational organization of singles ministries from over 30 local churches.  Multi-Parish Singles provides a host of spiritual, cultural, and social activities open to singles of all ages.  There's something going on just about every night of the week.  Look for the Multi-Parish Singles’ newsletter in the rack in the Narthex or visit www.multiparishsingles.com for a list of upcoming activities.  

Bridge Marathon Group  is a special group for all Bridge Players:  Every fall All Saints’ invites you to find a partner    and sign-up to play with this delightful group.  In this non-threatening atmosphere, all games are played with your own partner against another couple on a rotating basis in each others homes. Sign-ups begin in September, play will begin in October.  Scores will be kept and prizes will be awarded next Spring. 

Fellowship Committee is a group where we gather in fellowship to promote informal opportunities for parishioners to meet and share as we build the community of All Saints’.  One of the ways we build our sense of community is by working together.  Not only do we share the comradeship of our work experience, but we share our combined efforts with and for the wider parish.  Opportunities may include preparing food at home or at the church, setting tables, hosting an event, cleaning up after an event, assisting as a volunteer in the church office with the preparation of parish-wide mailings and other parish projects. 

Los Amigos is a social group of adults in their 30s and 40s who meet once a month for fellowship, food and laughter. Most adults in this group have school age children; however children are rarely invited to the Los Amigos events. Activities include bowling, a post-Christmas Grinch party, and a St. Patrick's Day feast.

Mi Amicis is a social group of young adults in their 20s and 30s with either no children or young children. There are planned monthly potluck dinners or some other activity [generally with no children].


M.O.M.S.  (Ministry of Mothers Sharing) is a group where mothers of all ages are welcome!  This eight-week program provides the opportunity for a small group of women to come together and grow personally and spiritually.  Through journal writing, group discussions and prayer, women examine common issues, such as self-esteem, stress, everyday feelings, personal growth, friendships and spirituality.  All Saints’ offers two groups each year, one in the fall and one in the spring.  Meetings are held in the Youth Office on Friday mornings, from 9:30 a.m. - 11:30 a .m. Childcare is available.  Group size is limited to six participants and is led by two trained facilitators.  Registration is $35, which covers the cost of books, materials, childcare and the Celebration Dinner.  

More M.O.M.S! is a “graduate M.O.M.S.” program is for all women who have completed the 8-week M.O.M.S. program at All Saints’.  In More M.O.M.S!, mothers are invited to come together for         continued friendships, discussion and prayer.  Topics relevant to women’s issues are introduced to the whole group and further explored in small group settings.  More M.O.M.S! meets the first Friday of every month, from 9:30 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. in St. Barbara BI and BII.  Childcare is available for $10 a month.

SAGES (Seniors) Senior Adult Growth and Enrichment Society is a social, educational and recreational group for older men and women is led by Deacon Tom Davidson. It is recognized as one of the most effective and popular in the Diocese! SAGES luncheons are held on the second Wednesday of each month [except August] at noon in our parish hall. For most SAGES, the day begins with the 10:00 a.m. Eucharist and Healing Service in the Chapel, followed by a Bible discussion at 10:45 a.m. There is then, blood pressure monitoring, a tasty lunch and entertaining and informative programs at 12:00 noon. September through May, the SAGES hit the road for trips to and through scenic areas of Arizona. Most trips include a tour and worship at a nearby Episcopal Church. One trip in the Fall and one in the Spring are overnight jaunts.

Savoir Faire is a group of lively folk [50+], singles or couples, who major on growing together in Christian fellowship and and live up to their name, "knowing how to do the right thing under all circumstances!!" Fun, fellowship and food are featured.

Short spontaneous programs, group originated, are frequent features of the gatherings. Savoir Faire is an informal group who always welcomes newcomers.
