Easter morning found our church filled to overflowing with temporary seating set up in the side aisles and transept and others seated in the chancel. God be praised! Already in this year our church attendance exceeds last years record number by over 1,000. Special thanks to all of those who have made the effort to invite family and friends to worship with us at All Saints' and a huge WELCOME! to those who have joined our Parish family since the beginning of the year.

The Easter Service was altogether glorious and we want to express appreciation to Sara and Mike Wood for their handling of the flowers and window decorations. Thanks, too, to all those who, with their Thank-offerings and Memorial gifts, provided for the Easter flowers. No less do we want the give voice to our gratitude toward our Altar Guild members who brought all things to a high polish in preparation for the Easter Service.

On the Monday after Easter we committed to God's good keeping Barbara Gregory Lyons, the daughter of George and Nina Gregory. May God rest her soul and bring comfort to her family.

Our Men's group met Tuesday evening, March 26, at Houndslake Golf & Country Club. Following a pleasant mixer and meal, the men viewed and then discussed the first of a five part program presenting the real story of Islam.

Thanks to Frank Newkirk, our Junior Warden for his supervision of the restorative painting of the exterior church trim and Fairfield House porches. That project is now completed.

Our clergy continue to provide for the ministry to our sister parish in Florence, South Carolina. They are a lovely group and are appreciative of the folks at All Saints' for their support.

Our grave yard is in need of expansion and that will be accomplished in the next month. Currently we no longer have adjoining plots available. Our members desiring to reserve plots in the church grave yard may do so by indicating this to the Rector. Plots cost just $50.00 and grave markers are limited in size and style to those already in place.
