all... At All Saints' we study ... the big questions of life. As Anglicans, we try to balance three resources: scripture, tradition and new knowledge. Big questions find answers that are both comforting and challenging, in directions often neglected by secular society. Everyone is welcomed into our fellowship to worship and to study with us—at any level— as we explore scripture, tradition and new knowledge. Music:  Our
music director, Sara Brooks, and the All Saints' choirs will warmly
welcome you as a student of music at any level, should you wish to join
the music program. They practice weekly and lead the congregation at
Sunday services from September through June, with music to the glory of
God.On Thursday, September 9, 2010, the choirs of All Saints' Sandy Hill will begin another exciting season of choral music. This year, two ensembles will rehearse each Thursday evening in the Main Church. From 7:00-8:00 p.m., the ASSH Vocal Ensemble will prepare for musical events, such as our annual Advent service of Lessons and Carols, Lent and Easter services, as well as a Spring concert to be held in May 2011. This group is open to any and all choristers, regardless of past experience! From 8:10-9:00 p.m., the ASSH Senior Choir will prepare service music for the following Sunday morning. Once again, this ensemble is open to all. We ask you to pass this information to friends, family, etc. who might be interested in joining our choral community! We experience a wide variety of musical genres, and prepare works from the Renaissance to contemporary periods. If you'd like to be involved in either of these ensembles, please contact Sara: by email: sarachristinebrooks@gmail.com, or phone: 613-234-1686 ext. 224 ALSO... • The Open Table has an ecumenucal monthly meal hosted by local churches on the last Sunday of each month, in the Lower Hall of All Saints' Sandy Hill (Chapel Street at Laurier); the next meeting of Open Table is on Sunday September 26 at 4:30 p.m. (Supper at 5:00). • Lent 2010 featured bi-weekly discussions based on the book "The Last Week", a scholarly look at the Gospel of Mark and its perspective on Jesus's last week before the first Easter. The Last Week is by John Dominic Crossan and Marcus Borg. • Autumn 2009 featured a 10-week series "Experiencing Jesus". Each week, a light supper was served at 6:00, followed by discussions based on the course material by Tim Scorer and Marcus Borg. ... more • Our 2008 autumn course on Luke's gospel finished on Dec. 5... for reference, the weekly notes remain posted here: Weekly Bible Study .
