Clothing Our Kids

Logo for Clothing Our Kids

During the month of October we will be collecting NEW sweatshirts that the local Clothing Our Kids charity can distribute to school-age children in need. Sizes needed range from Toddler through Adult XXL. 


The mission of Clothing Our Kids is to impove the lives of at-risk Head Start through High School students by providing them with new school clothing. Not having essential clothing has a direct negative impact on children's self-esteem, attendance, and ability to learn, and can lead to bullying. COK's goal is to assist these youngsters with an equal start in their education and to help them become successful students.  


Donations can be dropped off in the All Saints parish hall, 10-4, Monday-Thursday.  COK requests new, in-season clothing; see their web site for more details.

Thrift Shop New Location

Announcing an exciting new venture for our Thrift Outreach Ministries:

With the commitment of our past and current vestries, parishioners, thrift staff and volunteers, and most assuredly our customers, we have purchased a new retail location of great potential to be opened mid-year 2026. The new property, made up of three separate buildings located at 26804 Lewes-Georgetown Hwy, Harbeson, DE, will be transformed from its current custom furniture sales business into a newly envisioned Parish Thrift Shop ministry for years to come. Parish Thrift Harbeson will join our Parish Thrift Midway location as our two anchor stores. The property in Rehoboth has been closed.

Parish Vision Journey

The Vestry has initiated a vision journey to look ahead 5 to 10 years to imagine parish life from its current state of growth. This year-long project will build from the recently completed 5-year plan which laid the needed infrastrucure for vibrant lay ministires and parish life. 


The following parishioners from every corner of our current ministries have been asked to represent and guide us: Mark Barbone, Daria DiSabatino, Helen Hoart, Rutland Paal, Lisa Scholl, and Barbara Villwock along with Maurice Seaton, a Faith Facilitator with Core Capital Campaigns. 


The parish will be called upon to offer insights and feedback along the way. Please keep our visioning team and this project in prayer that we may enter the conversation with love and grace.
